Not far away, Gungwald announced a new release:

I have created a release of the dev65 assembler that includes an installable binary. I've made it as easy as possible to install on Linux, Mac, and Windows. I wanted to support my Mac G4 but unfortunately this version requires Java 1.6 or greater. The current version of Java is Java 11. If you have that, you're good. Yes, Java version numbering is stupid. If you're still using Java 8, like so many companies are today, it's time to move on.

If you have trouble, open an issue and I'll fix it.

When I originally raised concerns about not being able to run Dev65, I thoughtlessly added it to a thread about assembler macros. Even though Dev65 had been mentioned earlier in the thread, my posting didn't really belong there, and I should have created a new, separate topic. Apologies.

Thanks to BigEd for chasing up the Dev65 issue on my behalf, all those months ago, and for setting up a separate topic, like I should have done!

And of course, many thanks also to Gungwald for his updated fork.

Not to sound woefully ill-informed, but... who is Andrew?

He was a prominent, very knowledgeable British member and contributor here who died about eight months ago.

Andrew Jacobs, then, I assume? I had no idea - I'm sorry to hear it. I know his work and his posts. That's a heck of a loss.

Yes, his untimely passing was indeed a major loss. The cause of death, as I recall, was complications from COVID-19.
