Which assemblers do you/did you use for coding?

I thought this might be interesting.

I'll start:
I started out with Hesmon, and later switched to Handics VICMON.
Never did anything major in this. Just learnt how stuff was working.

Later I bought a copy Oasis Machine Lightning (which was bought up by Ocean and turned into Laser Genious)
I used Machine Lightning for all demos I did in the 80's. Cost a shitload of money.
It's line oriented (like basic) which sucks a bit, but has very good macro facilities.

I had a quick stint with Macrofire V1.0 but thought it was cryptic.

I started using dasm as soon as I got an Amiga.
Kept on using dasm when I switched to a linux system.

I have recently started using Kick Assembler 2.12 in combination with dasm and make (under linux).

Sounds kind of crazy. Would love to take a look at how that works.


I will release it once the music player is finished which I am writing using that assembler. (The player will be able to pack sectors into a list of memory holes defined in Rust, from second a to second b.)

It has some restrictions - for example you have to put ; at the end of lines as it is Rust code, use 0x for hexadecimal numbers, and you have to forward define labels used in expressions. But you can write code like this:

let rust_variable = 3;
asm! {
//-----------------------------------
jmp init_music;
play_music:
//-----------------------------------
ldx #14;
bne +;
+ lda play_music+rust_variable,x;
}

That snippet you posted looks interesting. Nice idea. Looking forward to that release.
