Compiler that works in Ubuntu ?

Why no mention of the GNU assembler?

Probably because gas is intended to be feed from compiler output?
I read this somewhere else, can't remember the exact source though.

Of course, nobody stop you from using gas.

It was, with the AT&T syntax, but GAS has for a long time supported an Intel syntax, that at least for the Windows versions is based on a MASM 6.0 grammar, so the syntax is very similar to MASM (although there is no high-level syntax). Unfortunately, the macro system is not at all similar and weak by comparison.

Yes. GAS makes a good job and you've the specific assembly language feeling of the older days. I've seen some code, made by Intel, using GAS.
