Whoa bubba... I am surprised you can make lunch... but seriously, who taught you how to write assembler code? Ok, here is a sample "hello, world!" program that includes a counted loop to the iolib wrapper routine ( hello.asm ) and the io wrapper ( iolib.asm ) and a Makefile. All you will need to build this hello world demo in opensuse is yasm|nasm , binutils ( ld ) and elf (standard). Its a flat 32 bit sample, staticly linked, and does not call any of the c library. Enjoy, but pay particular attention to the format, the style, the comments, and the Makefile. note: do not include the /begin /end lines in the code files.
Anyone here remember doing assembly code in DEBUG? Many years ago, someone wanted a DOS utility that would just return an error code and do nothing else. I wrote one in assembler, using DEBUG, and it was only 5 bytes long. The same thing in Turbo C, came in at a few K bytes. -- Use OpenOffice.org http://www.openoffice.org -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse+unsubscribe@opensuse.org For additional commands, e-mail: opensuse+help@opensuse.org
