Compiling data to specific memory location

[IanWitham]

Hi, noob question here... Is it possible to compile data (custom characters, for example) to a specific memory location? I'm looking for an equivalent to *=$2000 in assembler.

The only way I can think of currently is to use something like:
header my-data $1E c, $1E c, ... (many more bytes)
and then copy that data to the correct location. Now I have "my-data" taking up memory in my program when it's no longer needed.

Or is this what the "marker" word is for? (i.e. to delete the data from "my-word" onward once it's not needed).

Hallo! HERE is the same as * in assembly. You can do e.g. ”$c000 to here” to target $c000. Cheers
