If you come up with said sed (hey! almost!) script I'd be interested in
that. Of course, we'd need two scripts for going each way...

I had considered a while back writing a merlin compatible cross
assembler in some high level language, but generally speaking I've
found that my IIe (Transwarp, SCSI disks) assembles "fast enough", and
emulators running with restrictions turned off are probably going to be
as fast or faster than a compatible native assembler (assuming the use
of an interpreter)
