Just curious: was this x86 assembly language or something else? If it was x86, you may wish to consider using NASM, the freeware assembler. There are, however, some advantages to the inline assembler that you can't get with NASM (including occasional compiler optimizations and function inlining). NASM is a lot more straight-forward and contains relatively few bugs compared with GAS (the GNU assembler). Of course, it's completely up to you... ;) /\/\att /\/\astracci mmastrac AT acs DOT ucalgary DOT ca GCS/GE d- s+:+ a--- C++++ UA P+ L E-- W+ N++ o K+ w+ O M- V PS++ PE++ Y+ PGP t+++ 5+++ X++ R++ tv+ b+++ DI++++ I G++ e h r* z?
