Hey :)

I've tested some IDEs. I sticked with WinAsm. Is it good?

What would you recommend?

Thank you!

Depends on how you rate good/bad, IDE's are ultimately a matter of personal choice. Pick an IDE you like, try some others, and see how they fit your style of programming/editing. A bad one will frustrate you doing specific tasks. Most are sufficiently similar that you can become familiar with them. If you get into more general assembler programming for other platforms you will likely find the tool chains might tie you to specific IDE's, or a company might have bought into a specify set of tools and made the choice for you. Personally I prefer tools like SciTools Understand, and MAKE files where I can actually find quirky settings/options that people tend to bury in leaf nodes of their projects which can be very difficult to find through an IDE.

Being familiar with merge tools like WinMerge or Araxis Merge can also be helpful for pulling code back and forth between multiple projects, and often overlooked by beginners. They can also highlight code differences between things that are working and not working, or used to compare different releases of test code people post online or on the forum.

It could be a random act of randomness. Those happen a lot as well.

I like the older versions of Radasm, not a huge fan of recent ones. But it's definitely an awesome IDE, without it,it'd take me much longer to due large projects.

What you edit with is like your choice of Girlfriends, very much a matter of taste. See if it wil do what you require, if it does and it is convenient to the style of code you write, use it, otherwise, write your own.  :bg

I wish I could write a GF where I could just

include boy.inc
...
invoke GetLove
mov boy, eax


Now: the real girl

include myself.inc
...
invoke GetMoney, ADDR boy
mov cash, eax
invoke Shopping, ADDR cash
.IF GF_MONEY==ENOUGH
      invoke GetLove
      mov boy, eax
.ENDIF
ret

LOL
