A new ten-dimensional superparticle action with local symmetries implemented via gauge fields is formulated in a superspace with an extra anticommuting space-time spinor coordinate. Light-cone quantization gives the spectrum of N=1 super-Yang-Mills. Covariant gauge choices in which the gauge fields are set to constants lead to free BRST-invariant quantum actions. Possible ghost systems include one with only a finite number of ghosts and several with an infinite number. In each case, the BRST cohomology class of zero ghost number gives the spectrum of N=1 super-Yang-Mills.
