hi all, LinuxAsmTools was tested in the console and with Ubuntu. A few problems were found with: AsmFile AsmBug MiniBug Mostly it was window resizing...
Terminal Review (12/2/2008) Most development work occurs in a terminal, and Llnux has a large number of terminals. This is a review of a few. All tests were...
Hmm... 'aterm' and 'xterm' are the ones I typically notice in the distros I've tried. With your asmmgr (and associated programs), I believe I've had the best...
... I do most of my development work in a Debian terminal because this allows "X" window tools. Things like AsmBug and the insight debugger. But I may move...
Hi all, This is a followup on using x terminals.. After a few days of testing, I've found more problems with various terminals. What a mess. The newer...

Hi, Is this a blog? I seem to do 95% of the posting. Maybe it could be called LAB (LInux Assembler Blog) or something like that. Anyway, I'm now planning to...
Hi All, Someone on the asm newsgroup expressed the opinion that hard coding kernel call numbers is a bad idea. I can see reasons to hard code these numbers...
Hi Jeff, Thanks for the script. I modded it for 64-bit: #!/bin/bash cat /usr/include/asm/unistd_64.h | sed -n s/'#define __NR_'/'%define sys_'/gp > ww cat...
... An "advantage" to the symbolic version is that, with a 64-bit version of "syscall.inc", "mov eax, sys_exit" will assemble the correct value for 64-bit...
Frank & Nathan, Thanks for the feedback. I've incorporated your comments into a new script that builds both include files. It works on my system, but I was...

... Groan, I guess some distro testing is needed. I'll put it on the list. ... Not yet, I still think the 64bit world is a few years away. After some testing...
Hi all, AsmLib has been updated on the web page. It now has kernel interface that is built from kernel include file (instd.h). The rest of AsmTools still have...
Hi all, The syscall changes also impacted AsmRef and AsmPub. Everything is now updated on the web page. all the best, jeff http://linuxasmtools.net We are now...
Hi all, This is a blog about terminals and the future of Linux. A few weeks ago the key_echo utility began to report data found in the Terminfo file. The goal...
Hi All, If you enjoy digging into the internal operation of programs, then.. xlibtrace may be of interest. It was just announced on fresthmeat and is easy to...
Hi All, I've been playing with signals on Linux and ended up with a lot of questions. To answer these questions I wrote a test program (attached at end). The...
Yo all, This is more comments on the signal test program uploaded yesterday. The user controls and output messages for "sig" could be easily improved. We...
... No "point and click"? :) ... What *I* need is a "quickstart for dummies". :) I haven't yet figured out what answers to give, in order to learn anything....
... Right!, the signal program needs better documentation. I am too involved in the details and can't see how it appears to anyone else, but here is a rough...
I'm not an assembler newbie, but I just discovered AsmTools and installed it earlier this afternoon under Ubuntu Intrepid. I'm going through the utilities and...
... Hi Jeff, You have discovered a bug. The AsmNano editor was dumped a few months ago and my update to AsmMgr was never tested. There are lots of solutions...
... Yup. That's me. I'm revising my assembly book to be all-Linux (it was originally written as a DOS book in 1988) and have been looking for an IDE mechanism...
... Did I say AsmEdit? Oh well, I should have said AsmFile. It looks a lot like AsmMgr. ... I think nano was created to be a open-source PICO. Now, there are...
Hi Jeff (and Hi Jeff!), Okay, I got a little "puzzle"... or if you know the answer, maybe just a "question". As you know, sys_access is intended to determine...

... Hi Frank, I'm confused (a normal state<grin>). When I run sys_access the kernel always returns -2 or ENOENT (path not found) when a bad path is provided....
Hi All, Some of the comments by Jeff D. got me looking at AsmMgr and other AsmTools programs. I found several problems caused by the removal of AsmNano and...
... Hi Jeff, I was afraid you were going to say that! Apparently "just my system" (perhaps you're "missing" that... although that's not the word I'd use...)....
