I have just placed an updated copy of AS68K on Charm and Kim. There should be no problems with it, but if there are, let me know and meanwhile re-define as68k to run old_as68k, which is what I will re-name the old version. One fairly minor feature has been added. You can now specify a directory on the filename, for example: "as68k [.progs]fred". The .ol file will end up in the same directory the source came from. This is consistent with the way the old as68k worked if you specified a "logical device" on the input filespec and left out the output filespec. I am open to suggestion on other ways to handle this, but will stay "compatible" for now. The new version also correctly reports its exit status, so your make should terminate if it blows up. The only other difference should be about a 20 to 25% speed increase. Since about a second seems to be the minimum time (for a 1 line file), you won't see a speedup unless you have files that take five or more seconds now. If I get no complaints by August 15th, I will delete the old version. Mike
