I mentioned this in a thread on the Atari 7800 Programming board, but it's probably more appropriate for here, since it's about the 2600 and I am a newbie

I can't get DASM to run on my Macintosh. When I double-click it from the Finder, it opens up a window telling me the command line format is incorrect, and it can't run.

When I try to open it from within Terminal (with the correct command-line format), Terminal tells me the program doesn't exist. (And, before you suggest the obvious, I am in the right directory)

So, how does it work? What's the secret I'm missing?

EDIT: I was already answered on the Atari 7800 board's thread. For some reason, it wouldn't accept "dasm" as a command, but it will accept "./dasm".

I'd like to point out that this is very basic unix knowledge, which you mac people should have, since a unix derivate is what makes our operating system tick under the hood.

Investigate the environment variable named 'PATH'.
