This is not new assembler - 2000-2001.
Robert make (re)release with modern license.

Purpose - wide. This is very small compiler and easy for modifications. For example - i modify MSA to have possibility compile overlays (something like dll: exe + symbol table) for DOS.

Also, for me it is good target assembler for my toy-compilers.

If you need macros, full x86 support etc - MSA is not your choice.

Make DOS great again!
