Subject: Re: 8080 macro cross-assembler to run under unix

  I think you can get zmac on simtel20 under unix-c. It's not same syntax as
Microsoft M80, or DRI MAC. 
  There was an 8080 macro assembler written in small-c by Hendriks ????
called  SMAC or some such, that was m80 compatible and produced relocatable
code. As far as I know, zmac only produced hex and binary.
  If you're not committed to emulating some particular cp/m assembler,
the macros can be done under unix with cpp or m4, so the essential piece is
the assembler itself.
  Yet another suggestion is to run a CP/M emulation under unix. You lose a lot
of CPU speed, but for assemblies the diskio may dominate anyway.
  To see how this works, rlogin in as "cpm" at hopf.purdue.edu.
This kicks you into a cp/m 2.2 emulation program. Change to drive B: and run
"mac bios "  to get an idea of how fast the emulation is for your purpose.
