PC Assembly Programming
Other Useful Sites and Links

I'm including links here for subjects from general assembly programming to specific software related issues that an assembly programmer has to deal with.

Here's the list of places I really have used:

 
  • The Art of Assembly
    Randall Hyde's site has a 1400 page manual on most subjects surrounding assembly language programming. His site also includes his HLA assembler tool which offers a different approach that includes sophisticated macro processing and currently generates files that are compatible with MASM/ML.

  • John Fine's Home
    John has set up a great site for protected mode programming and it's a good place to also get the NASM assembler, either with or without his modifications to it.

  • PC Interrupt List
    Ralf Brown's site includes the famous list of PC interrupts. When someone mentions "The Interrupt List," they mean here.

  • Assembly Snippets
    A large collection of assembly routines for the PC, including educational stuff, stand-alone programs, various functions, and bits and pieces (snippets) that won't work by themselves but show some method or feature.

Quick Links:

 
  • Intel CPU Manuals, P-II
    Intel provides manuals for their CPUs here. This is their P-II page and carries more links that their P-III page which I include, next:

  • Intel CPU Manuals, P-III
    I'm including this just in case Intel adds something here that isn't on the P-II page.

  • Tool Interface Standards
    Intel's site for getting information on OBJ file formats and more.

  • Adobe's Acrobat Reader
    The famous PDF file reader from Adobe. This is a must, since much of the documentation you'll find is formatted into these files.

  • FAQ on Assembly IDEs
    This page is part 3 of the x86 Assembly Language FAQ and provides some information on various IDE programs for assembly writers.
