Today during class you'll have your performance assessment on using ED to edit CP/M assembly language programs.

Read Chapter 12: Console Input/Output and print out an 8 1/2 by 11 inch sheet of notes that you can use on a quiz we will have on the chapter next class after Nikita / Jake and Conrad's presentation on the chapter.

We've done it! After 11 chapters of preparation, we have finally arrived at Chapter 12: Console Input/Output, where we will begin building the I/O library that will be the focus of the rest of the book.

Thanks to the fantastic work of Gabriel Cohen, we have his CP/M ED - Command Reference & Sample Workflows to help us quickly learn to use ED to edit files.

Your task today is to use Gabriel's cheat sheet together with chapter 12 to create a working version of the first iteration of CPMIO.ASM as presented in the chapter.

During the next class you will be asked to demonstrate using ED to edit and assemble a small assembly language program. This will be a performance evaluation using the following rubric:

A

Can edit and assemble the program presented using ED quickly and correctly without consulting the cheat sheet.

B

Can edit and assemble the program presented using ED correctly with only minimal use of the cheat sheet.

C

Can edit and assemble the program presented within the class period using ED.

D

Can make edits, but not assemble the program presented within the class period using ED.

E

What's ED? How do you assemble a program?
