 Hi Cycle Saddles:

Yes it is fairly short.
I even changed

Code Select Expand


dec ecx
mov byte ptr [ecx], " "
inc ecx


Code Select Expand


mov   byte ptr [ecx-1], " " ;replace null with space

Keep at it herge. Before long you'll be coding thousands of lines of asm code so don't be afraid to post your source code here. I love reading assembly language, its more fun then smoking marijuana.
