Hi!

Nice, how masm compatible is it?
And how wasm compatible is it?

What are the requirements, is a 386 without FPU enough...?
Are a few megabytes of RAM enough? Other relevant details?

> It's available in 2 zips, binary and source.
> The binary package contains both a Win32 and DOS application.

How big are the zips, how big are the installed binaries in
Win32 and in DOS, is there anything that needs configuring,
maybe a switch between wasm and masm mode for example?

> I'm afraid it's not fdupdate compatible.

Mateusz or some JWasm fan could always make a zip in the
typical fdupdate directory structure if there is interest.

No problem :-). Nasm is still good for compiling Nasm
sources, but JWasm sounds like a good idea for compiling
Masm and maybe also Tasm sources! Neither Masm nor Tasm
are freely available and ArrowASM can only handle limited
complexity / size Masm projects like NANSI... :-). Plus
ArrowASM is unsupported closed source freeware, not nice.
