Some information about 6502 programming languages, plus one free 6502 assembler...
Need an assembler for your 6502? Try XA!
xa (XA65) is a high-speed, two-pass portable cross-assembler. It understands mnemonics and generates code for NMOS 6502s (such as 6502A, 6504, 6507, 6510, 7501, 8500, 8501, 8502 ...), CMOS 6502s (65C02 and Rockwell R65C02) and the 65816.
Features:
* C-like preprocessor
* rich expression syntax and pseudo-op vocabulary
* multiple character sets
* binary linking
* supports o65 relocatable objects with a full linker and relocation suite, as well as "bare" plain binary object files
* block structure for label scoping
If you wish to utilize other language, you should read the David A. Wheeler's 6502 Language Implementation Approaches, which discuss some specifical aspects of higher-level language implementation.
