Add support for 6800 compatibility instructions. The occasional program uses the 6800 compatibility instructions since they are actually specified by Motorola in at least some documentation. They advertised the 6809 as source compatible with the 6800. This mode is not enabled by default, however. It is my belief that receiving an error when using a non-6809 instruction is more useful since it is unlikely that much 6800 source code is being assembled for the 6809 these days. Nevertheless, the --6809compat option is present for just those purposes so one does not have to resort to using macros (which would work equally well in most cases).

+><P
+>LWTOOLS also includes a tool for managing libraries. These are analogous to
+the static libraries created with the "ar" tool on POSIX systems. Each library
+file contains one or more object files. The linker will treat the object
+files within a library as though they had been specified individually on
+the command line except when resolving external references. External references
+are looked up first within the object files within the library and then, if
+not found, the usual lookup based on the order the files are specified on
+the command line occurs.</P
+><P
+>The tool for creating these libary files is called LWAR.</P
