Read Accumulator Register from C

[jimw]

Is there a simple efficient way to move the contents of Reg A to a variable in C?

Hello JimW,

Whenever a function returns a char value, the returned value will be in the accumulator.  So the following seems to work OK.

char funcA(void) {

  asm lda TCNTL;   /* Low byte of timer reg */

}

char value;

value = funcA();

Regards,
Mac

I think I found it.

char t;

 __asm {
 sta t
 }

compiles as:

  TSX

  STA ,X
