It's been a while since I've actively used DOS32A (on purpose,
anyways), but I think its configuration tool (SS.EXE ??) allows you to
turn off some of the (copyright?) messages. I don't think there was
any environment variable setting (a la DOS4G=quiet) though.

DOS/32A (9.1.2) itself compiled with OW? Dunno, don't remember ever
trying. I vaguely thought it was written in TASM. Somewhere around 1.8
or 1.9, one guy added -zcm=tasm to WASM, but I don't think it's 100%
complete, so it may not work perfectly for you.

There's also an unmaintained "freeware only" clone called LZASM (TASM
Ideal only) out there in the wild, if you want to search for it (both
DOS [WDOSX!] and Win32 versions). Here, lemme find it:

I don't think "real" TASM is freeware. Though back in 2007 or so,
their "freeware" "Turbo C++" bundle for Windows had "oldie" 5.3 [2000?
MMX only?] in there (but with no 32RTM / DPMI32*.OVL, though it could
run with WDOSX or HX). I think they still somewhat maintain it, hence
5.4 or such allegedly exists, but I dunno beyond that. (That TC++
needed some .NET stuff, but it never installed properly for me on
Vista, and that old laptop later hosed itself.) Newer Embarcadero
compilers (BCC64 ?) use a heavily-modified Clang, dunno what assembler
(if any) is supported.
