[comp.os.cpm] comp.os.cpm usage and zcpr3.3

pguhatha@phoenix.UUCP (06/04/87)

A few days ago I posted my suprises with ZCPR3.3 and it's required
new assemblers (I guess both ZAS and Z80ASM will do),
I got curious what actually happened to the old assemblers.
To me this is quite
a change with older versions of ZCPR, but we all know, one day the
old 8080 code will be replaced by Z80, and by Z280 and HD64180...

Now, I am curious how many people that read this messages actually do
still use assemblers, and if so, which one.
I only knew of ASM, MAC, RMAC and M80, but know we need either ZAS
or Z80ASM. Also a public domain Z80MR is available, but there maybe
more.
I would appreciate some responses, and will summarize to the net in
a couple of weeks when things slow down.
It seems that I was a rather oldfashioned user, and that most of the
community has changed to the more modern assemblers. Let me know.

I use M80, mostly. Not sure what version, but it's old. Can't afford to spend
a lot on a hobby. All these commercial users are ruining it for us hobbyists,
I think sometimes:-).
