You have been flogging that one for a few years now. Now if you are so hostile to anything Microsoft, why are you using Windows and not Unix or Lunix variations ?
(which opens fine in Wordpad btw)
So now we have WordPad as the ultimate proogramming editor. :P
Humerous how someone who hates Microsoft so desperately clings to a clone of the 1990 version of the Microsoft assembler. How would you handle FASM or GAS in a non Microsoft world, perhaps NASM if you wanted to go multi-port.
Just to make you laugh, I can open it in my RTF help file editor.

Bottom line is REAL MEN[tm] write their loop code in Intel mnemonics, not everyone wants a compiler writer to hold their hot little hand.
Now the question is, where is your modern 64 bit /LARGEADDRESSAWARE code ?
