It does not even impress them. But why should it? Theres nothing
impressive about writing asm apps. This is so easy anyone can do it. 100
times easier than using C for instance.

Whats impressive is that the smaller the asm app is, the more impressive
it becomes.
Must be due to the best code is the code one never writes?

btw. Where is the code you never wrote? :))

Ok, Where is the code you wrote with HLA then?

NASM is not a Assembly specificaly written for Win32.

Not only he _can_, but he can have several personal equates files.

What I did was, that I copied the Equates.equ to "Copy of Equates.equ"
then I loaded "Equates.equ" into a texteditor, and deleted all content.
the I launched RosAsm2046a and checked that the path was pointing to the
path of the file I had edited.

I repeated this step now.

I just recompiled CurrentProject, and MonsterMediaEx

No problem.

Then I go to main:
and I write:

&WM_ (rosasm now underlines it)
I press CTRL+SPACE
RosAsm ask : Do you want the whole list?
I say yes, and RosAsm crash.

Solutions:

* Either you did not deleted what RosAsm uses.

* Or you have zero &EQUATE in your Sources. :)

Not that bad... :))

Yes. Thanks. Fixed for the next release - even though, adding
securities against voluntary destructions, is not something
really useful, IMHO -.
