30 kb .EXE? Interesting. Ah, Oscar Toledo! A true genius. "Save a hard drive today!" (Memorable quote that always makes me laugh.) I hope his family is well and healthy. "Unfortunately, nasm doesn't run over 8086/8088 processors,and I couldn't find a compatible assembler!" Strange. I was lightly playing with 8086tinyplus (on Windows) recently, and I noticed that the (in)famous 16-bit NASM build from 2005 of 0.98.39 didn't seem to run properly. (But that could be an emulator bug. It runs fine under QEMU. I know 8086tinyplus can't handle 186+ ENTER/LEAVE properly.) Even other NASM versions had issues. (A86 and Wolfware/WASM worked fine, though.) Actually, I think I ran my old BARE_DOS floppy and used "call /s", and then at least NASM 0.97 worked. I meant to try to recompile NASM 0.98.39 with both Turbo C and OpenWatcom (supporting bin only or bin+obj only) and test, but I never found the extra time and energy. * https://jaybertsoftware.weebly.com/8086-tiny-plus.html * https://www.ibiblio.org/pub/micro/pc-stuff/freedos/files/devel/asm/nasm/0.98.39/ Comments on further testing welcome! _______________________________________________ Freedos-user mailing list Freedos-user@lists.sourceforge.net https://lists.sourceforge.net/lists/listinfo/freedos-user
