Synapse has come up with a really powerful Assembler, Editor and machine-language Monitor. All these are in a single program which is available on disk, or by special order on a ROM cartridge.\\
\\
This Editor does for Assembly programs what the BASIC cartridge does for BASIC programs, and it works much the same way. Additional editing commands include: Auto-Line Numbering; Renumber (all or part of a program); Delete Lines; Move and Copy (blocks of lines from one part of a program to another); and Search/ Replace (character strings).\\
\\
The Editor has a unique HIDE feature that will protect a source program in memory. Load or type in a new program, then edit and assemble it completely apart from the program you are hiding. You can then save it, or delete it, or append it to the hidden program.\\
\\
The Assembler part of Synassembier is incredibly fast! I have assembled programs as large as 1500 statements and it's average speed is about 100 statements per second, with the source file in memory and the listing turned off.\\
\\
An Include feature assembles multiple source files in a single pass. This is useful for picking up "canned" subroutines or things like a list of Operating System equates. It also can assemble very large programs and it is quite possible, and sometimes practical, to have a main program that has only Include statements in it.\\
\\
The Monitor is a full-featured : machine-language debugger. Memory can be displayed, changed or moved around. Registers can also be displayed and changed. Program execution can be traced, or you can singlestep through the instructions. There are also some special read/write commands that allow you to directly read and write any disk sectors without opening a file.\\
\\
Synassembler is a professional development tool for the experienced programmer as well as the beginner. It has an excellent Editor, a very fast Assembler capable of assembling programs of virtually unlimited size, and a Monitor that should serve well in finding the trickiest of bugs. It's a step above the Atari cartridge because of its speed and ability to include multiple source files. Synassembler does require 48K and you need a disk drive to take advantage of all its features. If you have the memory and the disk, it is a good value for the money.

Synapse Assembler has been written by Steve Hales. Steve Hales was and still is an Atari hero and living legend. Describing Steve is quite easy. If you compare Atari to the whole world, then Steve would be a global player. He has done so much for Atari and the community. Steve is already a member in the [hall of fame|https://atariwiki.org/wiki/Wiki.jsp?page=Thanks] and carrier of the sigma, the highest award possible on the Atariwiki. We owe him so much! In 2015 he has given us the source code for Fort Apocalypse, further he has given us the source code listing from Star Raiders! Without his help they would be lost. Steve, tera-thanks to you, may you live long and prosper.
