Book on Microsoft Macro Assembler

[Ravi Kiran]

Hello everyone. I want to write a very big book on Microsoft Macro Assembler itself. I need the help of  every member of this forum and especially the senior members. I know it's not a one day job and I may commit mistakes sometimes
posting topics in this forum. Please be patient and forgiving.This forum is the best forum I've ever seen and I'll never leave this forum for my entire life.
Long Long live masm32 forum.

What would be the purpose for the book, or the scope of its contents? Would it be more technical in nature or more or less examples of usage? In either case I wish you the best of luck.

[Ravi Kiran]

Yes sir it is intended to be more of technical. Not for novices and amateurs.

I hope that you have a unique approach. There are quite a lot of books on masm not to mention the books that include a chapter on it.

Best of luck.

[Ravi Kiran]

I don't think there are many books on MASM . As far as I know I have the 16-bit
MASM 6.11 manuals. If so plz provide me the list sir

I have randall Hyde aoa 32bit free
So a new book that might be needed to have unique approach, to be interesting
Some complain aoa is old,but the mmx chapter was unique and instructive and made me try to develop a different mindset for SIMD, and been my way ca 25 years now
Maybe more interesting and up to date target masm 64 bit?
Senior members? Arent all senior members except some students taking asm class?

Research tutorial or book before write is one way of learning asm
I did that with my SSE tutorial long ago,but it was based on both research and coding SSE
Good luck with your book

I'll give you a couple, but you need to do your own research for your project.

Microsoft Macro Assembler 6.1 Programming/Book and Disk (The Len Dorfman Practical Programming Series)
The Waite Group's Microsoft Macro assembler bible
microsoft macro assembler 5.1 microsoft codeview and utilities ( for the MS-DOS opperating system)
Microsoft Macro Assembler 5.0 - Programmer's Guide
Microsoft Macro Assembler 5.1 : Programming in the 80386 Environment
Power Programming With Microsoft Macro Assembler

Then there are the chapters throughout assembly books that reference MASM as they progress.

HERE is a link to what is on the Internet Archive.

[Ravi Kiran]

Thank you Sir. l'll BUY all those books listed first of all.

[Gunther]

Don't forget: Ray Duncan: Power programming with Microsoft Macro Assembler, Microsoft Press, Redmond, Washington, 1992.

Keep in mind that most of the books are old stuff, reference for 32 and 64 bit instructions and architecture are found in the Intel manual set and while they can be hard going, its the best available.

[Ravi Kiran]

Thinking of a book on Microsoft Macro Assembler from 16-bit to 64-bit more than the size of Intel manuals combined.
