Fastest Intel 8086 assembler in the World

[Alexey1994]

The link is a binary PE file for the i386 platform.
Written for Windows operating systems since 95.
To access the source code, simply disassemble the binary file.

So, what makes you think anyone is going to run a random EXE? Especially one that is called “the fastest assembler in the world” lol. This is very fishy. Where is the source code?

And who needs an 8086 assembler that just emits raw binary?

While this might be the world's fastest 8086 assembler, it's certainly not complete. I could not assemble the first two instructions I tested – nop and pop.

Well, too bad – I did it. I'll report back when my PC bursts into flames.

I'm more curious as to who needs an 8086 assembler that doesn't emit raw binary. That's been a basic expectation of mine ever since I started using nasm.

Object files and linkers are useful no matter which CPU you're targeting.

The word “just” was the pertinent part of my post.
