+dis6502 is a flow-tracing disassembler for the 6502, originally written
+by Robert Bond and supporting Atari binary files.  Robert posted dis6502
+to the Usenet newsgroup net.sources on 9-Oct-1986, and to
+comp.sources.unix 7-Jun-1988.  Udi Finkelstein ported dis6502 to the
+Amiga, added support for Commodore 64 object files, and posted it to
+comp.sources.amiga on 4-Nov-1988.  These versions were in the public
+domain.
+
+This version of dis6502 has been modified in several ways:
+
+1)  Line numbers are no longer necessary with equates in definition files.
+
+2)  If a data reference is made to an address that does not have an
+    assigned name, but address-1 does, the reference will be disassembled
+    as name+1.  This is convenient for two-byte variables, particularly
+    in zero page.
+
+3)  New definition file directives:
+
+        <name> .equ <addr>                     same as .eq
+
+               .jtab2 <addr>,<addr>,<count>    table of code pointers, split
+                                               into high and low byte tables
+
+               .rtstab <addr>,<addr>,<count>   like jtab2, but each entry
+					       contains the target address
+					       minus one, for use with RTS
+
+4)  Rather than using recursive calls to trace every instruction, there is
+    now a trace queue
+
+5)  Updated to use ANSI C function prototypes and include files
+
+6)  Amiga/Manx changes have been removed
+
+dis6502 has been tested on Red Hat Linux 9, but should work on other
+Linux, BSD, and Unix systems.
