Assembly

http://www.ibm.com/developerworks/linux/library/l-gas-nasm.html

last line read: NASM uses the resb, resw, and resd keywords to allocated byte, word, and dword space in the BSS section.

(back in dec/jan or so, I was trying to learn some asm using examples in GAS and the NASM manual; wish I had time to restart those studies!)

Ok, picking apart X86 assembly by studying code written for Linux under GAS, using NASM for documentation on FreeBSD, was fun.

When it’s after 0800 zulu, I’m starving, and picking apart notations is beginning to compile into making sense….. and you can’t remember the last time you slept at ease, somerhing is just nuts… : I guess, the real question, is how much will still be remembered in the morning, or with the time frame I’m likely to get to bed at, probably the _afternoon_

Post it for the future.
