What do you mean by "uses a DRI-like assembler"?  Is this what 
Small-Mac is?  I've been using it for a while now, and it works well.   
What is this ZASM/ZLINK thingie anyway?

Wouldn't you know it, I couldn't find my Small-C book (yes, I PAID for 
Small-C... AND Small-Mac... AND Small-Tools too... GOOD STUFF!)
I don't know what version I have - may be a little out of date by now.  
But then, is Small-C for CP/M supported anymore??
