Sun SPARC assembler, reference manual needed.

[David R Kohr]

I am in need of a good manual for the Sun SPARC assembly language and
the "as" SPARC assembler that comes with Sun/OS for SPARC machines.
The manual on "as" which comes with Sun/OS is very sparse in regard to
providing a tutorial for SPARC assembly language.

I could also use pointers to alternatives to use in place of "as",
since I've heard that "as" is not very full-featured, as assemblers go.
The assembler would be used for an undergraduate course in assembly
language.

Thanks,
