Synopsis
Benediction ASseMbler is a modern z80 assembler dedicated to Amstrad CPC plateform. It has been developed and used mainly for the demo CRTC.
No true documentation has been written yet... But some little parts can be found here What can be retained is that:
- It's parser is definitevely slower than rasm ones, but speed remains still competitive
- It contains all standard assembler directives (file inclusion, conditional assembling, variables, macros definition, loops, local labels)
- As well as uncommon ones (functions definition, list and matrices handling, embedding of file by the assembler)
Of course, there are still bugs due to the limited number of users ;) but it worked propelrly with my use cases
Lots of examples are available in <tests/asm> folder.
