the AsmIDE
D.1 Introduction
AsmIDE, a freeware IDE developed by Eric Engler, combines a simple text editor, project
manager, terminal program, and cross assemblers for developing assembly programs for the
Freescale HC11, HC12, and HCS12 microcontrollers. The latest version of AsmIDE can be
downloaded from
www.geocities.com/englere_geo.
D.2 Starting the AsmIDE
The AsmIDE can be started by clicking on its icon. The screen should look like Figure D.1
after the AsmIDE is started. The upper half of the window in Figure D.1 is used to enter the
assembly program. The lower half of the AsmIDE window is used to display messages after an
assembly process or as the terminal window to communicate with the D-Bug12 monitor.
