          README.TXT            1990 December 24
          
                  The archive from which this file came (ashc5.arc) 
          contains all files for the ashc5 cross assembler for Motorola's 
          68HC05 parts, for use on IBM PC's and compatibles.  This cross 
          assembler is a "version 1.2" Motorola Freeware Assembler and, 
          except for giving 68HC05 cycle times and being compiled with a 
          different version of Microsoft QuickC (2.5 vs. 2.0), is identical 
          to "version 1.2" of as5. 

                  Because this is an addition to the "version 1.2" family 
          of assemblers, I have included in the archive some of the 
          documentation files that come with the full set of assemblers.  
          You may obtain the full set of IBM executables by downloading 
          FASPC1P2.ARC and the full set of source files by downloading 
          FASRC1P2.ARC.  To get a full manual, download ASREF.ARC, which 
          unARCs into ASREF.MAN.

                  Here are the files in the ashc5.arc archive, grouped by 
          type: 

          EXECUTABLE:
                        
                  ASHC5.EXE     assembler for 68HC05 parts, to be used on 
                                IBM PC's and compatibles (compiled with 
                                Microsoft QuickC, version 2.5, compact 
                                memory model) 

          DOCUMENTATION:

                  README.TXT    this file

                  READEXE.TXT   the README.TXT file for the executable set of 
                                "version 1.2" Motorola Freeware Assemblers
                                (from FASPC1P2.ARC) edited to mention
                                ashc5; very similar to READSRC.TXT

                  READSRC.TXT   the README.TXT file for the source code set of 
                                "version 1.2" Motorola Freeware Assemblers
                                (from FASRC1P2.ARC) edited to mention 
                                ashc5.c; very similar to READEXE.TXT

                  ASEMBLER.DOC  short rundown on the Motorola Freeware 
                                Assemblers, edited to mention ashc5

          SOURCE CODE, SHARED WITH OTHER "VERSION 1.2" ASSEMBLERS:
                  *.c, dated 7-15-90 1:20a
                  *.h, dated 7-15-90 1:20a
          
          SOURCE CODE, UNIQUE TO THE ASHC5 ASSEMBLER:
                  *.c, dated 12-24-90 1:20a
                  *.h, dated 12-24-90 1:20a


                  If you want to recompile the assembler for any reason, 
          just tell your compiler to compile ashc5.c, which will then tell 
          your compiler to read the other source files. 
          

          Cheers!

                  I hereby release to the public domain this document and 
          all my work on the ashc5 assembler.
