Hi!

Could someone please give me some hints on learning assembly. I have written one
or two little test programs in 'C' that do boring stuff like add numbers 
together and even that too nearly 50k! So I am going to switch to assembly.
I just need to be told where to start. Should I start with a book, by debugging 
something or what ?? I would like to write nice little programs, for example
a phone-dialler...

Cheers everyone.

You have the wrong list, sonny. If you want to write a phone-dialler for your
toy, go ask on comp.sys.msdos.programmer. This list is for mainframe systems.
Any decent bookshop will be able to show you a shelf full of MS-DOS assembler
programming books.

(If you really do want to write a phone-dialler for a 370 mainframe, you have
my admiration. But such people do not usually post from demon.co.uk.)
