Such as I know there are programs like Visual Studio for languages

I forgot to mention this in my initial post but I am trying to program
for DOS.
Drat! :) I was going to tell you you can use VS to program assembly language, but there's a "gotcha". The linker you'll have (I think) will report itself as an "incremental" linker, and is for 32-bit code only. For 16-bit code - dos or other - you'd want the "segmented" linker (I can't remember version numbers).
ftp://ftp.microsoft.com/Softlib/MSLFILES/LNK563.EXE
Installing that in VS is likely to mess up other uses, I suspect...
The easiest way to program assembly for dos is with a .com file - no linker needed (if you use Nasm/Fasm/Yasm... not sure about Masm). All you need is an editor (notepad will do fine, or whatever your preference), and an assembler... I prefer Nasm:
http://www.nasm.us
If you *want* an IDE for Nasm/dos:
http://nasmide.sourceforge.net/
But... it doesn't really do that much for ya. Less to go wrong if you stick to just an editor and an assembler (IMHO)...
Best,
Frank
