Assembler preferences.

Two questions:
- what's everyone using these days?
- on large productions, do groups tend to enforce a single assembler for the entire project, or is the code base a bit heterogenous?

I'd like to keep this discussion purely focussed on assemblers; please leave code generators, loader toolchains etc for that other thread.


(as for me, I'm still using xa65 for most projects)

@AlexC: Doh.. About the same time spent on complaining about the acme link not being up to date would have been sufficient to update the link instead. :) (Not meant as an attack — just a reflection.)

Anyway.. the link is now updated.

I can now add Virtual Assembler to the list of natively running assemblers. The only drawback is that it seems to be based on non-macro Turbo Assembler version and missing macros or includes could be painful sometimes. Otherwise it is one of best tools you can run on your C64 and one of very few supporting SCPU.

KickAssembler since last year, before that it was 64tass.

Out of curiosity could you elaborate a bit why you've switched from 64tass to KickAssembler?

Due to its scripting ability.

Until at some point you realise that if you only have a hammer, everything starts to look like a nail.

true dat, kickass users tend to code the code, instead of just writing code. :)

But everybody knows that coding the code won't code the code, so it's cool.
