- > Can I buy IBM Macroassembler for OS/2
-
- Yes, it's called the Microsoft Macro Assembler 6.0 :) This seems to be
- the assembler that the assembly language examples in the Toolkit use.
- They compile with absolutely no changes (the makefile even calls MASM).
- I've been using MASM 6.0 for quite some time to produce 32-bit and/or 16-bit
- OS/2 programs (it's a dual-mode program, so it runs native under OS/2).
-
- Plus, Microsoft is running that special educational discount promotion,
- so you can pick up MASM 6.0 for $49US. Unlike any of the other Microsoft
- language products out right now, it take advantage of all the advanced
- features of OS/2 (supporting 32-bit flat model) while retaining OS/2 1.x
- compatibility.
