Kev,

Not TASM, no. 
If you speak Forth, try tForth. It's a parallel Forth for the
T805. It has a full-featured (reverse polish) interactive and
user-extensible assembler integrated in the language. It 
recognizes some of the undocumented instructions. The URL is
http://www.iaehv.nl/users/mhx/ (my home page, follow the Forth
links). tForth ran on the (obsolete?) CSA boards and also on a 
8 MB Parsytec design. 

If you really need to cross-compile, try iForth for NT 4.0. 
iForth and tForth are source code compatible and run each
others utilities (they bootstrapped each other long ago).

Conventional programmers should stay away from Forth.
