I'm not sure whether the original poster was talking about the former, or the latter; they're not necesarily equivalent (the assemblers I've used for the past 10 years or so have all been written in C...). You've responded to the former, and others have responded to the latter, so hopefully the original poster's question has been answered, no matter which they were asking about....
