(ignore: response to ShowCase rant)

[jj2007]

I set up this Showcase sub forum for assembler code, should we be supporting C and basic compilers as well ?

Assembler code is code that gets assembled by an assembler. So MasmBasic is assembler code. Once upon a time you were proud to produce high level stuff. Your Masm32 SDK is full of basic-like macros, see below.

But you are the boss here, so I moved my showcase example to the MasmBasic section
