Berkeley Softworks GEOS for the #Commodore64 (and other 8-bits) had a WYSIWYG word processor called geoWrite that could have images (from geoPaint) pasted in.

The official assembler took geoWrite files as input. You wrote assembly in geoWrite, and could bold and italicize stuff.

But when the assembler encountered a pasted-in picture, it automatically turned it into data pseudo instructions and set some assembler vars for the height/width.

You can’t tell me that isn’t rad.
