BRIEF DESCRIPTION:
HypAss10 is the initial evaluation version of a new universal SHAREWARE
cross assembler currently featuring the complete 65xx, 68xx and PICxx
family microprocessors and microcontrollers. HypAss was designed to be
the 'compatiblity machine' one day, and currently supports 10 different
selectable syntax sets, so you needn't learn the complete pseudo opcode
set and expression syntax of a new assembler whenever you use a new CPU!
This was one of the basic reason why I started this project.
Read the features overview below! USE THE INSTALLER SCRIPT!
INSTALLATION: IMPORTANT!!!
Extract the archive in a temporary folder and double/click the file
"Run_Me_First" from workbench . You may now test hypass in all its
functions before you may want to install it by double-clicking the
"INSTALL" icon (requires c:installer, not distributed with hypass).
KNOWN BUGS:
Hypass was developed using kick/os 3.x and runs fine there. During
latest tests i found out now that the filerequesters of the GUI crash
when used whith kick/os 2.x. I will fix that problem as soon as possible,
but the assembler itself doesnt rely on the GUI and works with any
os from 1.2 to 3.1. The GUI works from 2.1 to 3.1, just you will have
to start it giving it the source file name within the shell arguments
if you use pre-3.x os to bypass this bug! Bugfix in progress, sorry for
that...
COPYRIGHT NOTICE: IMPORTANT!!!
This archive contains a "License.guide", which you *MUST* have read
and agreed to *BEFORE* you install this package! If you don't, it will
be illegal to own, store or use this archive in any way!
WARNING!!!
This program is nothing for beginners to the assembly language, it may
totally confuse! You'd better start with another assembler.
THIS PROGRAM ISALPHA AND MAY CRASH YOUR MACHINE! USE AT YOUR OWN RISK!
Hypass was extensively tested with os 3.x and works fine there!

- Redefinable symbols and labels.
- Phasing check for labels and symbols, even in macros and includes.
- Powerfull C-style full signed 32-bit integer expression evaluator.
- Automatic code size optimization, smallest opcodes preferred.
- Direct page optimized addressing if supported by CPU.
- Operand size check for any mnemonic of any CPU in any addressing mode.
- Easy to create ASCII conversion tables for strings and characters.
- Switchable case insensitivity for labels/symbols and macros.
- Optional creation of a listing file, symbol table and include table.
- Supports the creation of multiple listing files, one file each pass.
- HypAss may automatically launch e.g. multiviews for each listing file.
- Created symbol table and include table may be reincluded again.
- Include files with all bit definitions for all supported MCUs.(regVRS)
- Low memory mode to run on small Amigas, should even run with OS V34.
