Macro68k compatible cross assemblers

Hi
Is there any cross platform assembler Compatible with Macro68k source files?
Vasm maybe ? But a quick search in the doc brings nothing.
Thanks

Didn't know an asm named Macro68k existed.

Try with Vasm ; there is most probably no other 68k cross asm.
If it doesn't work, yell like hell (or adapt your sources, or use uae to run macro68k itself).

I had a look on Macro68 some time ago, when I found it uploaded into the Zone. There are many additional and different directives. Also the syntax is a bit strange sometimes. For example the '®' character is used to delimit free text blocks across serveral lines. And I have seen ".." as a (local?) label.

I decided that it is not worth the effort to implement full Macro68 compatibility into vasm, also because the assembler is only rarely used.

@PHX
Thanks I'll run it under VAMOS once I completed the installation.
