+# merlin-utils
+utilities for the Merlin 8/16+ assembler
+
+An OMF linker for Merlin 8/16+ REL files.  Why?  ummm....
+
+`merlin-link [-D key=value] [-X] [-C] [-o outfile] files....`
+
+* `-X`: inhibit expressload segment
+* `-C`: inhibit super relocation records
+* `-D`: define an absolute label.  value can use `$`, `0x`, or `%` prefix.
+* `-o`: specify output file. default is `gs.out`
+
+### Building
+
+```
+git submodule init
+git submodule update
+make
+```
+
+Requires a c++17 compiler. (ie, ubuntu bionic or OS X 10.13).  Also assumes a little-endian environment :/
