     1.4 +Xa is a high-speed, two-pass portable cross-assembler.
     1.5 +It understands mnemonics and generates code for NMOS 6502s
     1.6 +(such as 6502A, 6504, 6507, 6510, 7501, 8500, 8501, 8502 ...),
     1.7 +CMOS 6502s (65C02 and Rockwell R65C02) and the 65816.
     1.8 +
     1.9 +Key amongst its features:
    1.10 +
    1.11 +* C-like preprocessor (and understands cpp for additional feature support)
    1.12 +* rich expression syntax and pseudo-op vocabulary
    1.13 +* multiple character sets
    1.14 +* binary linking
    1.15 +* supports o65 relocatable objects with a full linker and relocation suite,
    1.16 +  as well as "bare" plain binary object files
    1.17 +* block structure for label scoping
    1.18 +
    1.19 +Xa's eventual companion disassembler is dxa, a moderately hacked-up version
    1.20 +of Marko Mäkelä's d65 disassembler.
    1.21 +This is still alpha and is available as a separate distribution until it is
    1.22 +stabilized enough to be part of the xa suite.
