Anyone daring enough to want to program in machine code is assumed to have some grounding in what it's all about - and since every book that's ever been written about machine code covers assembly language in some detail, it's not surprising to find the comprehensive and clear documentation of DEVPAC pitching users headlong into those delights of low level programming only available to those also equipped with a suitable reference on Z80 machine language.

An assembler is the medium through which assembly language programs are written and debugged - it isn't a mystical piece of software that somehow makes machine language programming as simple as BASIC.

With that in mind, DEVPAC provides just about every feature sought by the low level language programmer. And the beauty of HiSoft is that if you can think of something that you would like to see added or altered, then they will always consider constructive suggestions which is certainly one of the contributory factors leading to DEVPAC's success on the Spectrum.
