Re: Best X86 assembler for Unix?

i suggest you to try FASM. Opposed to YASM, you can control more
things, and you have much better support on the board. FASM board is
currently most alive ASM board i am aware of.

but it depends what you want... FASM gives more power (at some
price...), suffers less from high-level philosophy, and is better at
small details.

if you like, post some short YASM proggie and i will show you how to
write it in FASM, so you can compare

.
