Notes (CP/M 2.2) 
 
Once you have assembled and linked the source files (and the .hex files arent deleted), the source files dont need to be assembled 
again unless you have changed a source file. 

 

Once you have created the image file (e.g., GENIECPM.COM), you can specify the image file name on the DDT command line and 
perform the I and R step for only the file you have updated. For example, if youve made a change to the CBIOS, the following 
steps update the BIOS in the existing GENIECPM.COM file.
