: compiling it under win32, as i see it the assembly code
: can be inlined using the __asm directive, so do we still need
: MASM ? is something in nanogui architecture tied to 16 bit ?
Why the heck would you want to compile it under Win32??
The whole purpose of MicroWindows was to emulate win32 on other systems!!
There's no architecture problems, the code runs on 16 bit ELKS and
16 bit MSDOS and 32 bit Linux. The asm's just there to do dirty
deeds that C can't always do.
