Hey guys,

Sorry I've been silent lately. Just lots of work and many projects I'm keeping quiet about until they are more "real".

Anyway, I've got one project that involves disassembling a 64KB firmware "blob". I started looking at disassemblers. I've not used any for probably over 25 years! It seems the most advanced one for 65816 (and the IIgs, even better!) is "The Flaming Bird Disassembler" by Phœnix Corp.

Unfortunately the English docs were rough (machine?) translations that were quite difficult to read. I decided to throw away my weekend and make a proper English doc.

I've put it up on Google Docs for now. Anyone can view and comment there (even anonymously).

Now that I've finished it, I've found that there was a second, equally important doc that explains their "extension" scripting. Doh! That will have to wait.

The relevant links:

MY AWESOME ENGLISH DOCUMENTATION! ;) TFB-Disasm (English) - Google Doc
THE AWESOME TFBD DISASSEMBLER! http://www.brutaldeluxe.fr/products/french/tfbd.html

And for anyone curious, here's where I got the source French document used in this translation: tfbd_manual_tr.pdf

Finally, I have no rights to this program, and am just providing the translation of the manual as a fan of the author's hard work.
