ASM V 5.04 Mar 2004 (Nick Roberts

Errm - It seems to work with "OS_Exit" etc here - very handy.

PD4 is just under 10Mb text file - some other files are bigger.

Seems to multi-task - but it seems way slower than ObjAsm :-(

Perhaps a Faster IDE interface would help & more RAM - 64Mbytes here.

Might be interesting to compare times with the Iyonix!

It talks about ADRL in the help file - Perhaps a MACRO could be made up

Seem to think there was another linker prog 'DRLinker'?

Seems a pity the front end of Acorns linker '!Link' can't be modified to
give an option to output the 'Binary' option as FF8 or 'DebImage'
instead of just 'Data'.

I see that ASM is written in 'C' - a 486 version :-|
