This isn't an x86 assembler like HLA - it's a z/Architecture (mainframe) assembler, very different beast indeed. But - they may want to pick a new name, lest they incur the wrath of IBM's lawyers. I think IBM took that name in the 80s. Also - it seems that 'webster.cs.ucr.edu' has gone missing from DNS somehow; so I wasn't able to look at the source, although I was able to look at the web pages thanks to Yahoo's cache. - Dave Rivers - -- rivers@dignus.com Work: (919) 676-0847 Get your mainframe programming tools at http://www.dignus.com
