I even did a test run and made a mini-assembler. Features and benefits: This assembler correctly assembles instructions of the form "ld r,r" by printing their opcodes on the screen. The instructions are tokenised and syntax checked on entry and a special token storage system makes the assembly easier and thus faster. Bugs: The assembler is compiled to load in at 16384 so it is incompatible with programs which use the system heap. The assembler is incompatible with procedures whose names begin with the letter L. imc
