Description:


PtnAsm is a PowerPC assembler for Amiga. It requies a ppc processor
and a WarpOS installed. Most important features:

- creates objects in EHF format
- 603 and 604 instructions and all 32-bit extended mnemonics are
  supported
- complete floating-point support
- uses the same syntax as PowerASM
- support for most of the popular directives

Extended Features:

With PtnAsm it's posible to write a code as a sequence of equations. What
does it mean? Instead of writting  addi r3,r4,3 you can write r3 = r4 + 3.
This gives the same resoult. It's possible to acces almost all instructions
in this way. The general format is:

  destination [.][o][s] = source1[operator source2 ...]
