Title: New member introduction
Post by: DRX on January 20, 2012, 08:16:35 PM
Greetings fellow asm'ers,

I have been a long time reader of the masm32 forum (since 2004), and I finally thought it is about time I registered.

I have been interested in assembly language since I discovered hex editors and disassemblers on my Atari ST many years ago.  I wrote my first simple assembly language programs using the venerable old debug.com of DOS some years later, then finally got a second-hand copy of TASM to try out.  I thought assembly language was dead for a long time with the prevalence of Windows, but discovered otherwise in the early 2000's and eventually found this forum and have been reading ever since.  Maybe I will even be able to contribute something useful someday.

Hey DRX,
  I started with MAC65 on Atari 800XL. Outstanding macro assembler for the 6502 processor.

And I started mine by hand coding on a TRS-80. Eventually got tired of hand coding and hand coded my own assembler.

Welcome to the forum as an active member.
