The manual on "as" which comes with Sun/OS is very sparse in regard to providing a tutorial for SPARC assembly language. I could also use pointers to alternatives to use in place of "as", since I've heard that "as" is not very full-featured, as assemblers go. The assembler would be used for an undergraduate course in assembly language. There is another manual you will want. It is called "The SPARC Architecture Manual" and the latest version is 7. You should be able to contact your field office for one of these.
