Gosh! IDIS, that's going back a while! I remember finding a couple of
bugs in IDIS when it first came out - a short BSR, for example, wasn't
decoded correctly. Freddy V (Mr Digital Precision) gave me a copy of
IDIS-SE to see if that cured the problem. Duh!

It didn't and I spent many a happy time exchanging letters (!!!) with
the developer until we got the problems resolved.

I find DISA to be a much better disassembler these days - it has inbuilt
knowledge of various QDOSMSQ structures, like config blocks and so on,
and can, when you tell it, disassemble those correctly with one click. Nice.

DEA is/was an extremely powerful disassembler. It has a steep learning
curve though and may require updating. I once wrote an article on using
it - can't remember which QL "comic" it was for though, might have been
IQLR or QL Today, not sure.

I must fire up IDIS-SE though soon, just for nostalgic reasons.


Cheers,
Norman.
