It isn't really the latest; 1.33i was released a little bit after
2.0. The 2.0 version is a revision from the original authors that
adds an extended object module format, allowing arbitrarily long
external identifier names. The 1.33i version is based on 1.2 but
significantly enhanced and debugged. I think 1.33i is a much better
setup, even at the expense of the limits on the length of external
identifiers. It's more reliable, faster, optimizes better, is easier
to set up, and runs from the Desktop as well as from a command
interpreter. It also has significant (to me, anyway) extensions
to the preprocessor borrowed from the ANSI standard.
