[A83] Re: nibbles / snake [OT]


There's a book at my local library that I really liked.  It is for
dos.  Dos x86 programming and linux x86 programming are quite different,
esp. when using gas as your assembler on *nix and masm/tasm/nasm on dos.

     AUTHOR    Abel, Peter, 1932-

      TITLE    IBM PC assembly language and programming / Peter Abel.

    EDITION    2nd ed.

  PUBLISHER    Englewood Cliffs, N.J. : Prentice Hall, c1991.

   DESCRIPT    xviii, 540 p. : ill. ; 25 cm.
