NAME
     rgbds - Rednex Game Boy Development System

EXAMPLES
     To get a working ROM image from a single assembly source file:

           $ rgbasm -o game.o game.asm
           $ rgblink -o game.gb game.o
           $ rgbfix -v -p 0 game.gb

     Or in a single command line, without creating an intermediate object
     file:

           $ (rgbasm -o - - | rgblink -o - - | rgbfix -v -p 0) < game.asm > game.gb

HISTORY
     1996-10-01: Carsten Sorensen (a.k.a. SurfSmurf) releases xAsm, xLink, and
     RGBFix, a Game Boy SM83 (GBZ80) assembler/linker system for DOS/Win32.

     1997-07-03: Sorensen releases ASMotor, packaging the three programs
     together and moving towards making them a general-purpose target-
     independent system.

     1999-08-01: Justin Lloyd (a.k.a. Otaku no Zoku) adapts ASMotor to re-
     focus on SM83 assembly/machine code, and releases this version as RGBDS.

     2009-06-11: Vegard Nossum adapts the code to be more UNIX-like and
     releases this version as rgbds-linux.

     2010-01-12: Anthony J. Bentley forks Nossum's repository.  The fork
     becomes the reference implementation of RGBDS.

     2015-01-18: stag019 begins implementing rgbgfx, a PNG-to-Game Boy
     graphics converter, for eventual integration into RGBDS.

     2016-09-05: rgbgfx is integrated into Bentley's repository.

     2017-02-23: Bentley's repository is moved to the rednex:
     https://github.com/rednex/rgbds organization.

     2018-01-26: The codebase is relicensed under the MIT license.

     2020-09-15: The repository is moved to the gbdev:
     https://github.com/gbdev/rgbds organization.

     2022-05-17: The https://rgbds.gbdev.io website for RGBDS documentation
     and downloads is published.
