Hi Rich,

Whats a good assembler to use, with decent documentation?

I have a book for the DOS 3.3 Merlin Assembler, but I've
never found the disk image for it, or really looked for that
matter.

Heh, calculating Relative Branches is such a PITA to be
honest, the way I do it is guesswork, and adjust accordingly
to make it point where it should!

Later,
Craig
