Not so easy to restart ...
I wanted to use GAS (GNU as) this time, because TASM seems dead and buried , and not available for Linux.
« .intel_syntax » directive is not enough ! Do not forget the « noprefix » directive ! Otherwise, compiler complains about « ambiguous operand size for `mov' » (it must consider register name as a variable ? The error is not clear for me).
But, here it goes in all its glory.
/* as hello_intel.s -o hello_intel.o
ld hello_intel.o -o hello_intel.elf
*/
# Intel syntax
# « noprefix » is needed, for removing % before register name
.intel_syntax noprefix
.section .data
msg: .asciz "Hello, MASM32 !\n"
len: .long .-msg
.section .text
.globl _start
_start:
# message to stdout
mov eax,4
mov ebx,1
lea ecx,msg
mov edx,len
int 0x80
# exit
mov eax,1
xor ebx,ebx
int 0x80
Hi,mulu64
Maybe you try to uasm (https://www.terraspace.co.uk/uasm.html (https://www.terraspace.co.uk/uasm.html)).
Hi,mulu64
Try UASM because it's smoother than GAS
; uasm -elf HelloworldUASM.asm
; ld -m elf_i386 -o HelloworldUASM HelloworldUASM.o
; ./HelloworldUASM
.386
.model flat
public _start
.DATA
msg DB "Hello, MASM32 ",10
len EQU $-msg
.CODE
_start:
; # message to stdout
mov eax,4
mov ebx,1
lea ecx,msg
mov edx,len
int 080h
;# exit
mov eax,1
xor ebx,ebx
int 080h
end _start
Hello,
Thank you for the suggestions.
UASM is in the official packages of archlinux, that's a good point for it.
But why on official website do we have last version published september of past year, and on github the last commit is three years ago ?

See UASM Assembler Development (https://masm32.com/board/index.php?board=51.0) with three posts by Johnsa mentioning version 2.58

I've made a mistake in my previous post. That's the arch package which has been published september 2024.
I was wondering why the git version was 3 years before the archlinux package.
Proabably a correction for the package itself.
But that's great UASM is not abandoned.
For what i make with it, GAS is enough for me for the moment.
If GAS is becoming not enough for me, i will have a look to UASM.
