[colorforth] Re: Intel® Pentium® 4 Processor - Manuals


Hmmm...I haven't had time to program in years  :-(((

But here are the links I have (plus loads of good links and info on these pages).

Might be interesting for some people. if it's not, then ignore this mail. I don`t endorse anything, it's just for information only.

iczelion has great tutorials.

Finally, I endorse NASM as the absolutely best x86 assembler I have ever
used. Whether you want to write a 16-bit .COM or .EXE program for DOS or
an ELF for Linux, it puts you in the driver's seat. I got my first
experience using the DOS version and am now fully migrated to Linux and
in both environments have successfully generated code to take control of
a PC from the hard disk's MBR onward and boot into an environment of
entirely my own devising with my own 32-bit keyboard, video display,
etc. interface subroutines and interrupts.

NASM is free. It pains me to read about folks struggling with
incompatible syntax trying to get colorforth source to assemble under
substitute assemblers to what Chuck Moore used. Why not cut it over to
NASM and be done with it? For various reasons, I am not offering do it
myself, but I would still like to see it done and believe that it would
benefit the colorforth community by at least providing a common software
development tool. The hardware incompatibilities between different
floppy disk controllers and graphics display chipsets would remain as
implementation issues in any case :(
