It uses a similar syntax (all pseudo-ops begin with a dot, e.g. .org
or .fill), supports the usual segments (.text/.data/.bss) and so on.
Output files are in relocatable format. They can't be executed directly,
but are supposed to be linked/relocated with ld(1) first. It's pretty
much like GNU as, in case you know that (part of the binutils package
nowadays).
