This program is meant to help people who write assembly code for the Parallax Propeller© chip. It is designed as a preprocessor to be used in conjunction with the Propeller Tool. It looks for "tagged" lines imbedded in normal PASM files and emits a second file for subsequent processing by the Propeller Tool.

It provides: indexing and indirection for all standard opcodes; a loop structure that can be nested; a case control structure that can be nested; conditional execution of the if...elseif...elseif...else...endif type that can be nested; simple substitution statements of the form sum += y[k]; a convention for declaring and using subroutines that allows for nesting of subroutine calls; a rudimentary conditional compilation feature.

This is a Windows program written in C# and built using Microsoft Visual Studio 2008. It uses .NET Framework 2.0 (and above) and is compiled for 32 bit targets (it will work fine in the 64 bit world - the opposite is unfortunately not always true).

The distribution now contains a sample file and a revision history.

There is a complete manual built into the program. Click on Help|AAC manual to bring it into view.
