PhxAss    4.14    Highly optimizing macro assembler

PhxAss V4.xx is a highly optimizing macro assembler for Motorola's 680x0
CPUs, 6888x FPUs and 68851 MMU (of course, the 030, 040 and 060 MMUs are
also supported). It requires OS2.04 (V37) as a minimum and does no longer
support older operating systems! (Kick 1.x owners: Get PhxAss V3.97)

Most important features:
o Fast: 15000-30000 lines per minute with standard Amigas, 50000-200000
  with A4000/040.
o Symbolic and Source Level Debugging.
o Automatic generation of executables (if possible).
o Small Code and Small Data support (also support for __MERGED sections).
o Listing file, Cross Reference Listing, Equates file.
o Complete floating point support: You can use complex floating point
  expressions, including float functions (sine, logarithm, square root,
  power, etc.), everywhere in your source, e.g. defining float EQUates or
  SETs.
o Switches for nine different optimizations.
o Locale symbols (xxx$ and .xxx type).
o Support for Motorola's old and new operand style (even in 68000 mode).
o locale.library usage (english, german, polish).
o Nearly all directives of the most popular assemblers like Seka, DevPac or
  AS (Aztec) are supported. Examples: INCBIN, INCDIR, CODE_C, REPT, RS,
  RSRESET, EQUR, REG, OFFSET, XDEF, XREF, PUBLIC, ...
o Further development and support is guaranteed for years, because I'll
  *never* change my system (Amiga forever!).
o Finally: Although Shareware, PhxAss is completely functional!

You will find four different versions of PhxAss in this distribution:
1. PhxAss: The standard 680x0,FPU,MMU macro assembler.
2. SmallPhxAss: This is a 68000-only version without floating point support.
3. FreePhxAss: This program is FREEWARE! It is intended for developers of
    PD-Compilers, who want to include PhxAss in their compiler package.
4. GigaPhxAss: Identical to PhxAss, but source codes are not limited to
    65535 lines. Quite useful for assembling Reassembler outputs.

PhxAss is SHAREWARE. A registration will cost you 25 DM or 15$. In return
you will receive the latest update and the right to ask me for a new update
whenever you want.
