Which assemblers do you/did you use for coding?

I thought this might be interesting.

I'll start:
I started out with Hesmon, and later switched to Handics VICMON.
Never did anything major in this. Just learnt how stuff was working.

Later I bought a copy Oasis Machine Lightning (which was bought up by Ocean and turned into Laser Genious)
I used Machine Lightning for all demos I did in the 80's. Cost a shitload of money.
It's line oriented (like basic) which sucks a bit, but has very good macro facilities.

I had a quick stint with Macrofire V1.0 but thought it was cryptic.

I started using dasm as soon as I got an Amiga.
Kept on using dasm when I switched to a linux system.

I have recently started using Kick Assembler 2.12 in combination with dasm and make (under linux).

Assemblers I tried:

(c64)Turbo Assembler
(cross) c64asm
(cross) dasm

I am programming actually on Kickassembler, I am quite happy with it and it's functionality, looking forward for more releases with more goodies.

let's see... I've used (in random order (some only shortly)):

Power Cartridge Mon,
Final Cartridge III Mon,
Turbo Assembler 7.4,
64TASS,
The Final Replay Mon,
Cyberpunx Retro Replay Mon,
Turbo Assembler 5.2 +FLT +Sharks -TLO autodrive hacks (aka RR-TASS)

currently my coding setup is like this:

RR-TASS for the actual coding,
RR-Mon for inserting text and looking through code and whatnot.

On the real C64 I use Action Replay V5 cartridge, as that's all I have... using it since around 1998 (coding that is ;) up to today, also gave the copper output fields a good sanding due to age.

On PC I use:
(Vice): Action Replay V4/5/6, Turbo Assembler (sometimes)
(Cross-dev): DASM with Notepad & Command Prompt, ACME with TextPad 5

On C64 I use/used Visa cart by Edna, or if it was Edna cart by Visa?!
But most often when I code I use ca65+makefiles+codenet, i.e. same setup as f.e. MagerValp and Krill.

Well, if people are specifying text editor as well (notepad!?) I'll have to add Vim to the mix for completeness :)
