you are right. the manual says the same, asx need 2.0+
i've added the manual (postscript) to the zone. with those virtual pdf printers, you can make a pdf from it. |

I use vasm. If I was programming directly on the Amiga I would also look at Barfly for AmigaOS 2.0 with 68020. It's a very professional package with an assembler and a graphical debugger, probably the best you can find for Amiga.
Here's a speed-test for various assemblers I made, it shows the time needed to assemble 1Mb of code without optimizations, on a 50MHz 68030: Code:
basm (Barfly) 8 secs ProAsm 11 secs phxass 13 secs ASM-One/ASM-Pro/Trash'm'one 136 secs vasm 263 secs Genam (Devpac) 346 secs In defense of vasm and Genam, they are both written in C and probably built with low optimization settings. |

Thanks for that, now I know not to waste my time with Devpac. 26 times as slow as PhxAss Really. 26 times? Madness

In real terms i've never had any assembly woes of the nature in that list, otherwise I would have binned Devpac years ago. |

@Leffmann Just read the blog, nice read, it says that just the linker is written in C the rest is pure ASM. IIRC Jez San Argasm was the fastest. Kamelito

Devpac3 is the only program I have purchased. I can not find the original now, but found Devpac3 with the manual online.
Is there anyone here who knows why save button in Settings / Assembler Control is gone in v3.18? Very annoying. |

Are you sure it is? I haven't used 3.18 as 3.01 is the last version that works on 1.3. However, I know that there are quite some shortcut keys that are not mentioned in the menu (like Amiga-D for the Debugger)

Yes, I use that version and confirm it is missing. There is only Cancel and Use options. Very Odd.

Regarding Trash'm: I have version 1.6 and 1.7. But 1.7 does not seem to run stable, at least it always crashes after quitting. Any idea about that? |

I once got a pile of software boxes and this included a "CodeX" Development package by Stefan Riege, which claimed to be compatible to Seka and DevPac. The one I have is from 1990 and has a price tag of 99DM.
Anyone knows this? I never tried that. |

I seem to remember that problem but it has been almost 2 decades that I last used Trash'm-One. If memory serves me right this was caused because v1.7 needed a lot more stackpace than the previous versions and the default stack size was too small, try to increase the stack before starting v1.7 and see if that helps. |

Thanks! Both seem to work nicely on first test. My collection becomes somewhat comprehensive

The IDE is ASM-One similar but it has the better debugger. Quote:

The Maxon assembler was sold under the name "Kick-Ass". I bought this critter in the early 90s.
Here is a ebay link showing the box. http://www.ebay.fr/itm/Kick-ASS-Asse...-/320943607818 |
