do you mean an individual program description?  you do that by the following:

.org _asm_exec_ram

	nop
	jp start
	.dw $0000
	.dw description

start:
	call _clrLCD
	....
	ret

description:
	.db "by JBrett",0

this works in Rascall, ASE, and Iridus.  (don't know about all those new
shells that keep popping up).

the documentation for ASE 1.3 describes how to do this.
(i think bill nagel was the one who established the standard for how to do
this in the first place)
