hello
sorry if i don't write a correct english I'm from italy
I work with this book http://www.arl.wustl.edu/~lockwood/class/cs306/books/artofasm/toc.html but i can't assemble the shell.asm file I think because I work in 32bit system (windows 7) and this book is for 16bit system also I use masm32 and in the book they use masm611
I want really to learn this book but i don't know Operating system i must use for working like in the book
please help me I a beginner
ciao - welcome to the forum :U
yes - the shell program is 16-bit
you can assemble it using the version of MASM included with the masm32 package
however, you must use the 16-bit linker (Link16.exe) instead of the 32-bit linker (link.exe)
of course, you also need Randy's 16-bit libraries
Randy's book is a great reference
i often refer beginners to the first several chapters
but there are always problems when trying to use one set of libraries (Randy Hyde) with another set (masm32)
also, you probably don't want to spend too much time learning 16-bit code
you would be much better off learning 32-bit
here are the command lines...
\masm32\bin\ml /c shell.asm
\masm32\bin\Link16 shell.obj
this is my shell.asm file
http://pastebin.com/6KTTnEJi
but when \masm32\bin\ml /c shell.asm
\masm32\bin\Link16 shell.obj
masm give me this error

thank you very much for help
dseg segment para public 'data'
you are using accent graves (' ') instead of apostrophes or single-quotes (') :P
dseg segment para public 'data'
thank you
when i execute link16 shell.obj this is the picture
(http://i184.photobucket.com/albums/x75/anouarattn/gfh.jpg)
the line libraries [.lib]: want a path of a libraries I think when I put c:\stdlib\lib\stdlib.lib (the path of the book aoa libraries) the linker work is c:\stdlib\lib\stdlib.lib the correct libraries or i must put sth other
thanks you very very very very much
i don't understand the picture :P
that appears to be some radical islamic newspaper
oh - different picture, now - lol
you have added the INCLUDE and INCLUDELIB lines in the source
just tell it no libraries
you can terminate the input line with a semicolon to make it assemble as is - i didn't think you'd see those lines
Link16 shell.obj;
I change it now sorry
ok thanks you very much
you are very very nice
no problem :U
we normally put the masm32\bin folder in the PATH environment variable
then use batch files to assemble
let me know if you need help with either of those

Click on the upper left corner of your console window; a menu will show. Near the bottom, you find "Modifica". Hover over it, then go right and click on "Segna". Use the mouse to choose the rectangle you want to copy, then hit Return. Afterwards, you can simply paste the text.
