SEXeDiss V0.5 Beta
MS Windows (Bindoze) New Executable (NE) dissasembler

22/9/95
Introduction
SEXeHeader is the first stage in a project I am working on which will culminate
in a program that will allow you to run a MS Windows application on your Amiga
as if it were made for AmigaOS originally. This is with all the Amiga's
wonderful multitasking abilities and without the Windows resource hogging!
The next stage of this project is SEXeDiss an 80386 dissasembler which
dissasembles Windows NE executable files and dynamic link libraries (DLL). This
will be followed by the actual emulator to run Windows programs.
Requirements
An Amiga!
Workbench 2.04
Usage
SEXeDiss Name/A STDIO/S
Stdio switch is to allow you to output the information on shell window enabling
output redirection to a file.
Limitations
Presently only dissasembles the first segment in a particular file but that
will be fixed very soon. This version is only being released because I want
more publicity! This is not quite a 386 dissasembler yet, it is a cross
between 286 and 386 code output.
What does it do!
SEXeDiss takes a Windows executable or library file and dissasembles the
contents into 286/386 assembly code.
Why do it?
Why have a program to look at Windows files on an Amiga I hear you ask. Well as
can be seen from the introduction I am working on a Windows emulator, *not* a
PC emulator but a Windows emulator. This is the next step towards the emulator.
There is a possibility that I may not complete this dissasembler, at least in
this year as I intend to begin on the emulator and have a working version out
by the new year.
Future
I will continue to develop this program as much as I need so don't expect new
versions. If you want source you will have to persuade me, as I am pretty
secretive about it!
Support for dissasembling more than the first segment will be added very soon
and perhaps other things. Suggestions?
Bugs
Lots!!!!!!
Well sort of, there are a number of instructions I haven't implemented yet and
will do as soon as I get the time, probably next weekend. 386 addressing modes
also need to be added and the 286 versions cleaned up, they should be cleared
soon.
If you find any bugs please e-mail me!
Windows emulator
If you are interested in any of my future projects please send me some mail to
let me know. Depending on the amount of interest shown I will put effort into
producing the software.
