Using -plain will generate a binary without any address or length information but that's what is expected at the begin of a ".b" file. If you want to use ACME, my suggestion would be the following:
- use "-cbm" instead of "-plain" in the compiler options.
- use ".prg" as file extension instead of ".b"

Is there a chance to include this in the default configuration? I kept the WUDSN installation unused for years because some acme code I was trying did not work because of this. I finally decided to take the time and see why it happened and this was the

solution. But why in heaven isn't this the default ACME configuration for the Apple II???

Hi,
I'm not using ACME myself, so I'm happy for all input and examples. When I check the current WUDSN version "-cbm" is the default for ACME. The ".b" is coming as the default for executables on "APPLEII", so it is not ACME specific. Of course you can
change it, but ".b" is used by the IDE to detect that conversion to .dsk is required.
Please contact me in case if further questions also directly as jac at wudsn.com
