you may have register to board, to see the attachment. But registering
is good thing to do if you are going to try FASM.

I have to compile/assemble anything I want to run on 64-bit OpenBSD
- there is no Linux emulation in64-bit mode.

I downloaded FASM, but the FASM distribution, seemed a bit sparse,
so I am currently working with Yasm. But my gut feeling is that I
will wind up using gas to achieve maximum compatibility with gcc.

My assembly interest stems from my desire to use SSE instructions.
Gcc generates truly atrocious code for SSE, but I can write stub
C subroutines, compile them with the -S option to get assembly
files, and then edit the assembly files to produce routines making
efficient use of SSE instructions.
