I think we (i.e. the scene) would benefit from everyone using the same assembler: easier to code utilities, easier to share code snippets etc. Obviously I'll be standing behind AS65. On the Plus/4 scene I probably have the most source code released, so that must count for something... 
Anyway, for the two issues Degauss mentioned: macros are well supported in AS65. I'm okay without local labels because I have a very simple method of coming up with non-conflicting labels. One thing that AS65 has and I'm not sure others do is the CMAP function. It's really powerful and useful for some data tables.
So... Since AS65 is the "official" assembler of Plus4IDE (it has built in docs available from the help), my real question is: what's wrong with it? Why'd you pick something else instead? |
