NAME

asm, disdump − Dis assembler, Dis disassembler

SYNOPSIS

asm [-l] file
disdump file...

DESCRIPTION

Asm reads one Dis assembly language file and translates it into instructions for the Dis virtual machine.  The output is written to a file whose name is created by taking the last element of the input file, stripping any extension, and appending .dis For example, the output file for abc would be abc.dis; the output file for dir/def.s, would be def.dis. 

The assembler has one option:

-l Generate a listing, showing the generated object code. 

Disdump prints to the standard output the Dis virtual machine instructions in each of its Dis file arguments.

BUGS

There isn’t a Limbo version of asm, which is therefore available only as a host command; but then again it is hardly used.
