Does anyone know any good books that will help me on my way? ASM does
not seem particularly well documented on Unix systems (I guess given
the historical relience on C).

Any information is appreciated.

Begin your search here:

http://asm.sourceforge.net

Then take a look at the HLA Standard Library source code here:

http://sourceforge.net/project/platformdownload.php?group_id=165727&sel_platform=8238

Thanks

for the links. That first site you linked looks very comprehensive although unfortunately Linux differs rather alot from Mac OS X which is pretty much exactly the same as FreeBSD is terms of ASM (at least it is using NASM) from my understaning. I'll see what I can do, still just getting to grips with the basics of ASM. Knowing C isn't that much help it would seem :).
