Favorite Assembler

All off topic discussions go here. Everything from the funny thing your cat did to your favorite tv shows. Non-programming computer questions are ok too.

If you have a minimal libc, you don't even have to modify any file. :wink:

I don't, because all my makefiles contain "CFLAGS = [...] -masm=intel" :D

Hi,

NASM here too, for a very long time (although I did switch to YASM for a little while, before NASM supported 64-bit).


Cheers,

Brendan

Only a dead assembler is a good assembler. ;)

No, seriously, for that two and a half lines of assembly I don't really care that much. Any assembler that is available will do the job (which means a slight preference for gas, because basically everyone uses binutils anyway).

I use NASM. The first assembler I encountered, and the one I still use today.
Give a man Linux, you feed the nearest optician ( Been staring at the PC too long again? ).
Give a man OS X, you feed the nearest NVidia outlet ( I need more GPU power!! )
Give a man Windows, you feed the entire Tylenol company ( Self explanatory :D )
