- Well, the KERMIT-65 saga continues. I was able to locate a 6502
- cross-assembler written in C. It is able to generate an ASCII text
- assembler listing, both with program source, or just with assembled byte
- values given in ASCII text. This program is able to run on a "Kernighan
- and Ritchie" C compiler. Unfortunately, the program that accompanies the
- assembler, that is supposed to turn the text characters into binary
- code, is written in ANSI C, and the file calls make the K&R C compiler I
- am using do strange things. <* ARG! *> Why can't this assembler generate
- UUENCODE output as an option? Why do people --DO-- things like this? Why
- do they add non-compatible ANSI C programs to programs that are K&R C
- compliant? This is driving me crazy!
