TITLE
Macro68, version 3.175
UPDATE NOTICE
Apparently, lots of people have moved without informing The Puzzle
Factory -- when update notices were mailed out recently, many of
them were returned by the post office. Users of Macro68 who have not
received an update notice and who want to get the updated version
should get in touch with The Puzzle Factory at the address below.

NEW FEATURES
68060 support added. Many bugs fixed, most of them minor.
DESCRIPTION
Macro68 is an assembler that supports the entire Motorola family
including the MC68060, MC68882/030/040 FPU, and MC68851/030/040
MMU. Additional capability includes the Amiga Copper.
The new Motorola syntax for 030 or later CPUs is supported, and
Macro68 includes a utility to convert old-style syntax painlessly.
Old syntax is also supported.
A unique feature of Macro68 is the use of a shared library, which
is always resident, and allows the use of preassembled resident
include files for incredibly fast assemblies. These may be standard
Amiga files, or any header files may be used. Additionally, a
configuration file may be defined that will set up a particular
environment, or insert specific code in all assemblies.
Most features limited only by available memory. Directives include
Structure Offset for compatibility with the Amiga's interface
conventions, and Frame Offset for easy stack frames. Full listing
control and cross-referencing. Ability to customize directives and
run-time messages.
Macro68 is fully re-entrant, and may be made resident. An AREXX(tm)
interface provides "real-time" communication with the editor of
your choice. A number of directives enable Macro68 to communicate
with AmigaDos(tm). External programs may be invoked on either pass,
and the results interpreted.
Macro68 is compatible with the directives used by most popular
assemblers. Output file formats include executable object, linkable
object, binary image, pre-assembled symbol tables, and Motorola S
records.
