+@cindex Macros, MSP 430
+@cindex MSP 430 macros
+The macro syntax used on the MSP 430 is like that described in the MSP
+430 Family Assembler Specification. Normal @code{@value{AS}}
+macros should still work.
+
+Additional built-in macros are:
+
+@table @code
+
+@item llo(exp)
+Extracts least significant word from 32-bit expression 'exp'.
+
+@item lhi(exp)
+Extracts most significant word from 32-bit expression 'exp'.
+
+@item hlo(exp)
+Extracts 3rd word from 64-bit expression 'exp'.
+
+@item hhi(exp)
+Extracts 4rd word from 64-bit expression 'exp'.
+
+@end table
+
+They normally being used as an immediate source operand.
+@smallexample
+ mov #llo(1), r10 ; == mov #1, r10
+ mov #lhi(1), r10 ; == mov #0, r10
+@end smallexample
+
+@node MSP430-Chars
+@subsection Special Characters
+
+@cindex line comment character, MSP 430
+@cindex MSP 430 line comment character
+@samp{;} is the line comment character.
+
+@cindex identifiers, MSP 430
+@cindex MSP 430 identifiers
+The character @samp{$} in jump instructions indicates current location and
+implemented only for TI syntax compatibility.
+
+@node MSP430-Regs
+@subsection Register Names
+
+@cindex MSP 430 register names
+@cindex register names, MSP 430
+General-purpose registers are represented by predefined symbols of the
+form @samp{r@var{N}} (for global registers), where @var{N} represents
+a number between @code{0} and @code{15}. The leading
+letters may be in either upper or lower case; for example, @samp{r13}
+and @samp{R7} are both valid register names.
+
+@cindex special purpose registers, MSP 430
+Register names @samp{PC}, @samp{SP} and @samp{SR} cannot be used as register names
+and will be treated as variables. Use @samp{r0}, @samp{r1}, and @samp{r2} instead.
+
+
+@node MSP430-Ext
+@subsection Assembler Extensions
+@cindex MSP430 Assembler Extensions
+
+@table @code
+
+@item @@rN
+As destination operand being treated as @samp{0(rn)}
+
+@item 0(rN)
+As source operand being treated as @samp{@@rn}
+
+@item jCOND +N
+Skips next N bytes followed by jump instruction and equivalent to
+@samp{jCOND $+N+2}
+

+@section Floating Point
+
+@cindex floating point, MSP 430 (@sc{ieee})
+@cindex MSP 430 floating point (@sc{ieee})
+The MSP 430 family uses @sc{ieee} 32-bit floating-point numbers.

+@cindex @code{file} directive, MSP 430
+@item .file
+This directive is ignored; it is accepted for compatibility with other
+MSP 430 assemblers.
+
+@quotation
+@emph{Warning:} in other versions of the @sc{gnu} assembler, @code{.file} is
+used for the directive called @code{.app-file} in the MSP 430 support.
+@end quotation
+
+@cindex @code{line} directive, MSP 430
+@item .line
+This directive is ignored; it is accepted for compatibility with other
+MSP 430 assemblers.
+
+@cindex @code{sect} directive, MSP 430
+@item .arch
+Currently this directive is ignored; it is accepted for compatibility with other
+MSP 430 assemblers.

+@cindex opcodes for MSP 430
+@code{@value{AS}} implements all the standard MSP 430 opcodes. No
+additional pseudo-instructions are needed on this family.
