Generated programs kept their state in system zero page $C0-$FE, which on the
C128 is KERNAL and screen-editor state while CHROUT runs: the print runtime's
pointer and length sat on TCOLOR/RVS/QTSW ($F2-$F4), and the KERNAL IRQ clears
its index at $C0 (CAS1). HELLO.PRG printed "HELLO FROM NOVA1ELLO FROM NOVA128"
in reverse video, which 8f8cf00 had hidden by masking bit 7 in the check.

The ENTRY stub now masks IRQs, installs CR $0E (D129), points P0 at page $1A,
sets the frame base, calls CODE and START, then restores P0, CR and flags.
prgprint switches P0 back to $0000 only around each CHROUT, inlined to stay
position independent. The driver test no longer masks reverse video.

The larger runtime exposed an 8-bit overflow in the driver's CODE base
(ENTRY + START + PRINT now exceeds 255 bytes, which surfaced as DISK ERROR);
the driver now passes the 16-bit address it already computes.

Full regression: 25 of 26 suites pass; parser fails only on baseline hashes
that predate 221e0c5.

E06-S06 routes deletion through a fat reference to obj_delete behind the heap's
always-on validation, so a stale value is refused with IF_ERR_FREED instead of
reading a freed destructor, and adds the objects.n8 parser fixture.

E07-S02 shares one launcher implementation that locks the writable image and
waits for the emulator exit and image flush, with x64sc for the editor and x128
for the compiler.

iface_slot reads the declaration slot assign_slots recorded, so a call site
emits an offset the class table actually has and refuses a method the interface
does not declare. The x128 fixture proves one call site reaching two classes,
one object reaching two interface tables, a nested call with a one-byte result,
and byte/word arguments returning a word with the frame stack restored, while
self stays the underlying object.

it_find selects the table a class emitted for an interface, refusing a pair the
class does not implement, and if_assign, if_arg_push, if_elem_store, and
if_elem_load give assignment, argument passing, field, and array storage one
API that keeps all four value bytes. Two x128 fixtures prove the class and null
conversions, verbatim copies, array stride, argument layout, and the result
area, while the semantic suite still rejects an invalid conversion.

Classes now build one table per implemented interface, in implements order with
one two-byte entry per interface slot, and a failed class rolls back so a
missing method address is refused instead of dispatching to zero. The MAP gains
one TABLE record per table, and the x128 fixture checks table contents, distinct
per-class tables, both rollback paths, and the exact MAP text.

Give interface calls one audited entry point that resolves the slot, refuses
null/table/entry/stack faults before executing anything, and returns through a
single synthetic address so nested and recursive calls unwind.

Freeze the four-byte fat reference, canonical null, slot/table layout,
and the IF_RESULT return area so interface dispatch and table emission can
build on one documented contract.

Lets pass 2 resolve absolute flow targets against a final CODE base and verifies a source program through deterministic PRG/MAP output and a real x128 run. Count-mode sizing, method/class MAP records, and unresolved-reference diagnostics remain in-progress.

Adds control flow, field access, forward self calls, method/program entry tracking, and E227 emission-failure reporting. Print vectors now live in safe zero-page cells to avoid the 6502 indirect-JMP page bug.

Statement emission now runs from parser pass 2: assignment, byte + and -, and
print reach codegen.s through emit.s, and the statements fixture executes the
emitted bytes in x128. Restoring the parser trace fixture's length arithmetic
(it emitted between the two halves of the subtraction, which clears carry)
brings the 41-fixture parser verification back to green after emit.s joined
the link.

Also check in the vim clone's improved C128 build and the Power C
reverse-engineering notes and tools.

Generated methods can now store and load fields through a zero-page receiver,
pass self to direct JSR calls, and keep byte or word results across argument
cleanup. The backlog gains the parser-to-codegen and pass-3 address assignment
stories the next backend work needs.

Generated programs now have control-flow emission, text and fault output, a
free-list heap, class descriptors, and object construction/deletion. Each
story lands with an x128 fixture and verifier so the runtime stays proven
before the parser drives code generation.

Implement transactional frame entry/leave, right-to-left arguments, one- and

Pass 1 now records every field and method signature (access, type,
parameter types) in bank-1 member and parameter tables, rejects duplicate
fields or methods per type, invalid init/destroy shapes (E151/E152, D122),
and `var` after a method statement or inside a block. Each signature and the
program open a typed local scope. Pass 2 scans statement lines: unqualified
names must be locals, parameters, or fields of the enclosing class (D123),
and member chains through locals, fields, self, new, calls, and indexing
report unknown members (E061) and private access (E120) at the member.

The parser test PRG grew past $4000 and crashed: mmu_init copies the COMMON
load image in the system mapping, where BASIC ROM hides $4000+. COMMON now
loads right after STARTUP and mmu.s asserts both stay below $4000.

Verified in x128: 28 fixtures, member tables against a source-derived
oracle, privacy and scope mutations caught; map, source, lexer, names, and
diagnostics suites pass on the new layout.

parser.s runs two passes over the cached source. Pass 1 parses interfaces,
classes (implements lists, fields, method headers), and the one program,
records top-level types in a bank-1 table, tracks method/program/if/while/
for blocks, checks duplicate locals, and reports syntax, ordering, and
duplicate errors with line-level recovery. Pass 2 reports type references
that name no declared type, so forward references are legal.

Verified in x128 against 24 fixtures through the real ERR files: 7/7
accepted, 10/12 rejected grammar fixtures at their sidecar positions
(line_cont and multi_stmt are statement-level, pending E03-S03), and five
parser fixtures matching their complete diagnostic lists. A pass-order
mutation is caught. D121 (proposed): method names may be keywords, as
spec 5.1's `method print()` requires.

names.s gives each distinct identifier a 1-byte ID (1-255), comparing
case-insensitively across both PETSCII letter ranges. The table lives in
bank 1: 64 hash-chain heads plus 20-byte records holding the original
spelling. name_declare replaces the first-use spelling with the first
declaration's spelling, so forward references keep the declared form.
A full table returns NAMES_ERR_FULL and writes nothing.

Verified in x128: the C128 dump equals a host model byte for byte across
case variants, an 8-name collision chain with an identical-hash pair, and
a 260-name overflow, with a guard after the table intact. A mutation that
skips the text compare is caught. D120 (proposed): 255-name limit.

src_load reads a SEQ file from device 8 once into a bank-1 cache (D118).
It enforces the 80-byte line, 599-line, and 18,999-byte limits as bytes
arrive and reports stable codes with exact positions. src_rewind and
src_next_line replay the cache one logical line at a time for every pass.
diskio.s wraps the KERNAL file calls; channels close on every path.

Verified in x128 with a 1581: eight fixtures, including the exact limits,
each limit error, a missing file (DOS 62), and a missing final $0D, all
match host-computed line counts, Fletcher-16 checksums, and positions.
Adds a shared PowerShell test library for x128 scripts.

Add cfg/compiler.cfg, the production mmu.s, c128.inc, and the test mailbox,
proven by a capacity-checking skeleton in x128:

- 8K bottom common RAM, shared code at $1300, private zero page at bank 0
  page $1A via P0, bank-1 tables at $2000-$BFFF, test mailbox at $1BF0
- ld65 rejects overflows of the ZP, COMMON, MAIN, SWSTACK, and TABLES areas
- a CIA #2 timer NMI taken under bank 1 with the private zero page returns
  cleanly through the NMI guard (closes the E01-S03 NMI risk)
- decision D117 records the map; RESTORE is ignored while compiling

Also pin newLang/ to LF in .gitattributes. A branch switch under
core.autocrlf had rewritten the byte-exact fixtures with CRLF.
