I have now looked at the documentation for this assembler, and it states there that the assembler is not capable of generating linkable code. This would I fear make it non-viable as an option for assembling SMSQ/E and also for use with v68. A shame that as for a moment it looked exciting.

I am using AS by Alfred Arnold. It is open source multiplatform (windows, dos, linux, epoc...) multiprocessor (mototola, zilog, intel...etc) macroassembler. I am using it quite frequently for Z80 and 68k. AS supports 68k up to 68040. And the best thing is that it runs on Psion PDAs. This assembler might be easily ported to QDOS/SMSQ. It is plain C, compiling under C68 should work. http://john.ccac.rwth-aachen.de:8000/as/ _______________________________________________ QL-Users Mailing List http://www.q-v-d.demon.co.uk/smsqe.htm _______________________________________________ QL-Users Mailing List http://www.q-v-d.demon.co.uk/smsqe.htm
