  I've used Lattice's ASM, CAPE 2.5, Devpac 2.0, and Adapt. If you've
got Lattice (or now SAS), you can use ASM for most simple things (it's
quite slow). Devpac 2.0 is the fastest assembler of the bunch, but has
some goofy syntax (like forcing you to place a switch as the first line of
your file). Devpac 2.0 and CAPE 2.5 do not support the 68020/30/40/881/882.
Adapt was written by Howesoft, and works just like CAPE (Gee, I wonder
why?)  It's basically a faster CAPE with 680x0/881/882 support. One of the
cool features of Adapt, is the ability to disassemble code showing cycle
times per instruction. No more looking through the book! Adapt is your
best bet out of this lot.
