C.A.P.E. 68k  Version 2.5
			      Release 1.0
				02/27/90

Thank you for purchasing C.A.P.E. 68k for the Amiga!  We hope that this is
the best assembler you have ever used and that if you have any problems in
its use or any questions, that you will call us and let us help.  We will
make every effort to assist you.

You can reach our technical support staff at (214) 340-4992.  We also have a 
computer BBS at (214) 357-8511, online 24 hours a day at 300/1200/2400 baud.  
If you are a BIX user, join our conference: inovatronics.

On this disk you will find the following files:

CAPE			the editor and integrated assembler
CASM			the standalone assembler
HLINK			our Amiga Linker
HProf			Amiga runtime profiler
PMD			a program module dismemberer

ARexx	(dir)	some sample REXX macros for use with CAPE

examples (dir)	several example programs' source code, including:
	alert		generate alerts (as if that weren't easy
				enough to do on the Amiga already!)
	Fcomp		file compare utility
	QView		super-small file viewer program
	Stars		looks like you are flying through a star
				field
	ud		unlock a locked directory
	wc		word counter
	IntuitionTutor	example of using various Intuition
				constructs, such as gadgets and menus,
				and how to process IDCMP events

includes	(dir)	the official 1.3 includes from
				Commodore-Amiga

LinkFiles	(dir)	needed files for linking programs on the
				Amiga, including:
	amiga.lib	from Commodore-Amiga for linking
	small.lib	from Bryce Nesbitt, this just has the
				_LVO offsets defined in it

Our update policy is very simple:  for non-major updates, we simply ask that
you return your original CAPE disk and we will return it, free-of-charge, with
the latest version of the software.  For major updates, we usually charge a
nominal fee.  For example, when version 2.0 of PowerWindows came out, it
cost our users of 1.x versions $22.50.  However, when PW2.5 shipped, it was
a free update to all 2.0 owners.  Please send in your original CAPE 68k disk
any time it is convenient for you (we'll put it on file for a future update)
Or, if you know there is an update you need, send it (and the fee, if 
applicable) and we will ship out the latest version. 

Once again, thank you for purchasing CAPE 68k, and let us help if we can.

ERRATA:

There is a new optimization bit to use with the OPTIMON directive.
It is BIT 21 or $00400000 and optimizes the move.l to a moveq followed by
a rol.l as described on page 80 of the manual.  If this bit is not
set, this optimization will no longer occur.

ABOUT THE EXAMPLES:

	Each example is designed to assemble from the CAPE2.5 disk, from
within CAPE, or using CASM.  They will save their object files to the ram
disk.  Any file which ends in .o will need to be linked.  Therefore, within 
the example directory for each of the files, I have included a file ending 
in .link which you can execute to automatically generate the final code.  
For example, after assembling the alert.asm file, you can go to the 
alert directory and type the following:

	execute alert.link

and the executable file, alert, will be created to the ram disk.  I have
added the OPTIMON directive to each of the files, which may be incompatible
with other assemblers which do not support code optimization.  That line
may be commented out if you plan to use another assembler.
