I'll give these a try once I figure out the serial transfer stuff!

I have been dipping my toes in as well, mostly writing/assembling on
the hardware itself with BYTEIT, and more recently CMZASM (both
available here: http://www.club100.org/library/libprg.html). Both work
by writing your asm code in the TEXT app and then compiling
separately. BYTEIT assembles out to a specific memory address
immediately, while CMZASM outputs a .BA file that POKEs everything in,
which I didn't really get at first but actually has some appeal / is
easier to reuse.
Been meaning to write up the little bit I've done so far somewhere, so
far I've just gotten a short LFSR seedable random number generator
routine going that I can CALL from basic, but I'm pretty sure I'm
doing something wrong because things still get a little crashy.

Hi Will,
I think most people on the list prefer tasm, though I use only the
assembler in VirtualT personally. Of course I wrote it and so
therefore know how to use it and all of it's quirks.

It will only be a matter of time before I want to program in
assembly on my m100. I've read up and familiarized myself with
the landscape on this and find it a bit confusing.
What is the preferred (or most common method) of getting an
assembly/machine language program to run on the m100. I know that
I can use basic to run machine code, but that's kludgy. I believe
there is a basic assembler program in the wild and I've read
about Custom Software's assembler, are either or both available
online?
Thanks!
Will
