Anyone using the MPW 65816 cross assembler on a Mac SE?  I'd be interested in
hearing how it compares with ORCA/GS and specifically how much faster/nicer it
is (if any).  Of course, consider that I use a smart make utility with ORCA/GS
and rarely do complete compiles of my programs and would have to add in the
time to convert the code over to ProDOS to test on the GS so MPW would really
have to fly to be worth the extra trouble so I assume there must be a
break-even point in code size where the savings of MPW might be worth the
trouble of using a cross-compiler.

Comments?
