Write your source code.
Download and Install Notepad++ from https://notepad-plus-plus.org/ Create a new folder (direcotry) Called VASM6502 Open Notepad++ and select File and then select New. (Opens a new window) Select Language and then select the Letter A then select Assembly. Assembly Language file uses the .s extension or .asm Select File again and then Save AS to the folder VASM6502 [enter a file name updownblink.asm] Make sure it has the .asm extension then click Save. Make sure you have line numbering turned On. Found under Settings/Preferences/Editing/Display line number. Cut and paste the example code below into Notepad++ at line #1 Select File again and then Save
Example code:

Compile your source code Windows 10.
Download the application VASM from Dr. Volker Barthelmann´s Compiler Page: http://www.compilers.de/vasm.html Select Binaries of vasm for 6502 for x86-64 (Mac, Windows and Linux): http://www.ibaug.de/vasm/vasm6502.zip Move vasm6502.zip to your new folder VASM6502 and extract the zip file in that folder. Open the new folder called vasm6502_oldstyle and select your operating system. I will be using Windows folder. (Win\Win10) Open WIN folder then Win10 folder and copy the relative path. C:\Users\this-PC\Documents\VASM-6502\vasm6502_oldstyle\win\win10 Move the file updownblink.asm you created with Notepad++ to the Win10 folder.
VASM6502 compiler is a command line program (CMD) so you need to use the CMD prompt terminal in Windows10. Open CMD prompt terminal and change directory to the VASM6502 directory. Example: CD Users\this-PC\Documents\VASM-6502\vasm6502_oldstyle\win\win10 Do a list command to make sure your updownblink.asm file is in the folder. Type the following command: vasm6502_oldstyle.exe -Fbin -dotdir updownblink.asm
Output creates the following lines and a file called a.out
vasm 1.8g (c) in 2002-2019 Volker Barthelmann vasm 6502 cpu backend 0.8 (c) 2002,2006,2008-2012,2014-2018 Frank Wille vasm oldstyle syntax module 0.13f (c) 2002-2018 Frank Wille vasm binary output module 1.8a (c) 2002-2009,2013,2015,2017 Volker Barthelmann seg8000(acrwx1): 106 bytes segfffc(acrwx1): 4 bytes
Rename the a.out file so that when you create a new program you do not lose this one.
rename a.out updownblink.out
Next Step:
Write the updownblink.out to the EEPROM
