Hi their i'm using nasm on linux and i was wondering how to accept user input?

My problem is this i want a user to input a number and then output to the screen the value.

Ie.e input 100

output one hundred.

I'm not looking for an explanation or walk through, just some instructions and tgeneral help.

Thanks alot.

Btw forum has changd since i was here.

Looks nice.

Hi,
Take a look at linuxassembly.org . I have troden these paths be4 and gave up :P . Not to discourage you or anything, IMO C is more suited for linux progging. In assembly all the syscalls are int 80h function and each function being a number etc. I suppose you could make macros for that but...

Ah thanks for the reply and advice but i will struggle on my friend.;)
Assembly on linux is very much suited, more than windows if you ask me. :U
