Introduction
------------
GALasm was created simply because there were no other
open source GAL assemblers. The assembler core
is basically the one of GALer, a GAL development
environment for the Amiga platform. I was unable
to get in touch with his author to get the permission to
do the port, so if he complains i'll have to
stop the development.
Copyright
---------
GALasm is Copyright (c) 1998-2003 by Alessandro Zummo
but any bug and any piece of code taken from the original GALer
sources is still Copyright (c) 1991-96 by Christian Habermann.
Disclaimer
----------
The authors can not be made responsible for any damage caused
by a fault of GALasm. In other words: use it at your own risk.
Even if i've ported it, i've not fully understood every
aspect of the assembler core.
Sources
-------
The sources are written in ANSI-C, so it should
be possible to compile them on any platform.
The sources have been successfully compiled
with SAS/C on the Amiga platform and with gcc
on Debian GNU/Linux.
About GALs
----------
Some kind of GALs are not reprogrammable and some others,
especially the one i belong to, are even not programmable at all...
ok, just kidding. The original GALer documentation
is a very well written, so if you want to know
how to write down a GAL equation, run your favorite
browser and load galer/main.html. All the non-Amiga
related sections are still valid for GALasm.
