	I would like to make a request for some information about the
assembler that is included with the MWC package.  I use MWC alot and would
like to try some assembly.  Is this much like the UNIX assembler.  Is there
a macro package like M4 available for it.  I have quite a bit of samplers 
for a UNIX machine with a MC680X0 chip.  It has always helped me to be
able to look directly at samples while trying new stuff.  (Yes I realize
all hooks to the O.S. will be vastly different.  When all else fails
link in libc.a and use the standard functions.
