Oh!  That's quite a bit different. :)  That's a reasonable feature, though
you probably could just augment the existing options to achieve it (you
already have the accumulator "A" register label add/remove control for
instance).  The format DiStella emits looks pretty vanilla to me, as far as
assembler formats go.  What others would you see a need to support and how
different would be their formats?  (It'd mainly be in the areas of
hex/decimal notational syntax, and pseudo-ops like DC/DB/DW, etc, no?  While
search/replace could probably rework most differences,  I'll grant it would
be nice to support a wider range.)

By the way, people... there exists a VERY VERY broad cross-assembler written
by a kindly German dude (Alfred Arnold) - supports DOZENS of CPUs, and a
variety of binary output formats.  100% source included, and 100% free.

I was kind of surprised the Stella/VCS2600 folks didn't latch onto it,
because it supports Z80, 650x, 68k, intel, TMS, AVR, Mitsubishi, and stuff
I've not heard of.  I've used it for so many microcontroller projects, it's
scary.

Hehehe.  I'm a Rob too... at least I prefer to go by Rob instead of Bob
normally. :)  Or there really WOULD be some confusion! :)
