Silly nOOb Question

Post by matthew149guy »

Hi All, last time I did any C programming was 2%+ years ago, for MS-DOS on PC, though I was using Microsoft Visual C++ V1.0 IDE in Windows95 - and it was all very easy, apart from a few tricky bits setting up the linker to point at the right libs in the IDE. So now I come to z88dk, and I am using Visual Studio Code with tasks set up to compile files, but I want to know how to go about it all in a sensible way - that is, can anyone tell me where I can find a tutorial on setting up and organising files for a z88dt project, and how to work with makefiles (I've done a bit of YAML with devops, but never looked at makesfiles) I have the GNU Make installed. I am looking to target the ZX Spectrum Next - so any info specific for building to that target would be welcome.

I've found what I need, I dug into the z88dk docs and found the "getting started" guide for ZX Spectrum - this literally has everything I need to get started - for anyone else ever in a similar situation looking for docs to get going, here they are: https://github.com/z88dk/z88dk/blob/mas ... edGuide.md

Thanks, and no doubt I will return with further silly questions. =D
