This StuffIt file contains the open source macro assembler I built so I could develop software and program "The Brain" using only my PowerMac G4/400. MacroPIC.sit It was written in RealBasic 4.0 so it's slow (about 3000 lines per second), but is a simple one step 'drop .asm file here' to use program. A 10 base-T connected programmer is available. Yes, I use one of these micro's as my programmer.
