History

ASM-One was developed by Rune Gram-Madsen in 1990 and released through the German publisher DMV-Verlag in 1991. It was distributed with either an English or German manual. The price of the assembler was 139 DM (71 €). The last copies were sold in 1992.

The assembler were developed in Motorola 680x0 assembler code. The source code was made public and in the following years a group called TFA (among others) from the Amiga Scene continued work on the assembler.

Current status

The sales stopped in 1992, but the development continues as a hobbyproject by TFA. The program is currently at V1.48. (Beta version is 1.49.)
