Macro tutorial

[zemtex]

Howdy.

Is there a good masm macro tutorial available somewhere? It do not have to be very extensive, covering the most important aspects is good enough for me? In fact, the shorter it is the better.

The best thing I know of is "The MASM Programmer's Guide" chapter 9 - Macros.

Here is a link to a CHM version. You can find it in PDF and Word format too.

[edit] This is interesting, an executable version.

I had a similar dos executable for tasm in the 90's, this is a good, very good thing to have.  :U

Also very clean.

zemtex,

Yeah, the executable version works pretty well.

If you haven't already, you could also take a look at the MASM32 macros, they're in the /macros folder.

Thanks GregL for the executable version.

I don't.  I understand your reluctance to run it.  I scanned it with Microsoft Security Essentials before I ran it.  The .exe file was created with Help & Manual.

This is a good thing to have http://www.sandboxie.com/  Although it is not a substitution for internet wit  :bdg

back to the original subject - lol
the file \masm32\macros\macros.asm has a few macros in it   :P
it is simple to study because you can easily run test code - and they are documented in \masm32\help

I appreciate the responses. I have found my sources now.  :U
