Macintosh assembly language programming 1st ed.

[From back cover]

In-depth introduction to the Mac's sophisticated 68000 microprocessor including hands-on guidance in putting it through its paces.

Commander leads you, step-by-step, through Mac's basic functions covering the fundamentals of machine code ... editor and assembler operations ... and how-to's for handling the 68000's addressing modes and instruction set. You'll find out how the Macintosh development system operates, about the Mac's software interface, and how everything works together to achieve maximum speed and performance.

By offering you a combination of useful theory and actual programming examples, Commander helps you build the kind of understanding you need to be the master of your micro ... not just a user of a language. Even the program design process and steps involved in writing assembly code are carefully and clearly demonstrated ... so that by the time you've gotten to the last page, you'll be eager to strike out on your own.
