Looking for opinions for PIC assemblers under Linux.  My searches have so=
 far=20
found me...
    - PICasm
    - GPutils
    - MPasm (dos version) under dosemu

I'll leave out options like anything under wine, vmware, etc for now.

The target machine is very basic (old aesthetically-challenged laptop w/1=
28mb,=20
but *no* HD, so single-floppy linux installation) and isolated (no networ=
k),=20
so it's difficult to setup each of these assemblers for testing (though I=
'm=20
still doing it slowly).

In the meanwhile, I'd like to know if anyone using these has any opinions=
=2E  I=20
have to date been using mpasm under dosemu, but with the floppy-based=20
install, dosemu is a bit large and will require a bunch of floppies to=20
install.

My target chips are the 12F629, 16F628, 16F87x, and soon I'll experiment =
with=20
some 18Fxxxx's hopefully.

At this point, I have the linux setup working with vi as my editor (yes, =
I=20
like vi!), and pp v0.6 for the chip programmer.  All I need is the assemb=

in the middle now.

[ Yep, I could get a HD and HD-tray, but a small floppy-based install wou=

soooo nice and low-cost! ]

Cheers,
