Yes, maybe so. Sorry about that. Not to say, i have the uttermost
respect for Herbert, and I truly would miss his arguments in this ng.
But I am helpless to understand his arguments about the propper use
of asm, a language which he obviosuly master to the full, and his
arguments then in favor of C. His arguments are mutually
incompatible, and seems to me highly selfcontradicting. One one hand,
he argues for the use of asm and dos, and on the other hand he argues
for the use of VC ???

What he seesm to be saying is that asm is good for getting nowhere,
but only for learning the machine. And that you should then continue
using VC when you learned how the machine works. This is to say that
he is an expert in asm, and and expert in the use of VC, but fully
unable to draw the best from each. This can only mean that he never
tried to do a large project in neither ASM nor VC, so he doesnt know
to what extent the VC road will turn just as hard as the starting
with asm and dos. That made him sound like a teacher to me.

The problem of Herbert is that, what he calls an Assembler, is,
exclusively... the Assembler he wrote, and, as such an Assembler
is much evidently not any tool for productivity, he comes to the
conclusion that productivity is not possible in Assembly.

I think that there is some "short-circuit" somewhere inside his
brain. So said, he is not alone in his demential opinion: Halas
the very large majority, but in his case, i still fail to imagine
how he could refute the very same Statement, when written in Asm,
and accept it when written in C ***. This is really over my head.
