Hans-G?nter@25425 1 Xa is a high-speed, two-pass portable cross-assembler.
Hans-G?nter@25425 2 It understands mnemonics and generates code for NMOS 6502s
Hans-G?nter@25425 3 (such as 6502A, 6504, 6507, 6510, 7501, 8500, 8501, 8502 ...),
Hans-G?nter@25425 4 CMOS 6502s (65C02 and Rockwell R65C02) and the 65816.
Hans-G?nter@25425 5
Hans-G?nter@25425 6 Key amongst its features:
Hans-G?nter@25425 7
Hans-G?nter@25425 8 * C-like preprocessor (and understands cpp for additional feature support)
Hans-G?nter@25425 9 * rich expression syntax and pseudo-op vocabulary
Hans-G?nter@25425 10 * multiple character sets
Hans-G?nter@25425 11 * binary linking
Hans-G?nter@25425 12 * supports o65 relocatable objects with a full linker and relocation suite,
Hans-G?nter@25425 13 as well as "bare" plain binary object files
Hans-G?nter@25425 14 * block structure for label scoping

Hans-G?nter@25425 16 Xa's eventual companion disassembler is dxa, a moderately hacked-up version
Hans-G?nter@25425 17 of Marko Mäkelä's d65 disassembler.
Hans-G?nter@25425 18 This is still alpha and is available as a separate distribution until it is
Hans-G?nter@25425 19 stabilized enough to be part of the xa suite.
