[comp.sys.atari.st.tech] 68000 Assemblers for the ST

mreiss@ncrcam.Cambridge.NCR.COM (mreiss) (07/16/90)

My son wants to start learning assembly language.  He currently has Personal
Pascal and Mark Williams C.  The assembler that comes with MWC has two
disadvantages.  First, the MWC assembler will not produce code that can be
used with Personal Pascal, and second, its syntax is not standard with most
of the sample programs he has been looking at.

I want to get him another assembler so I am looking for information.

1) Will the GNU Assembler (gas) solve these problems?  If so, I can get it
from terminator I think, but I'm not sure what files I need.  Can someone tell
me?

2) Should I be looking to get something else instead?  What are its 
advantages and where can I get it?

My guess is that this is not a "hot" topic, so please respond via email.  I
will summarize if there is interest.

Thanks,
mike
