Hi, as part of my learning curve for LINUX I have written a very basic
application in x86 assembly language using NASM, I think it is usefull as it demonstrates@-

1. command tail argument processing
2. file and console IO
3. flat assembling (no includes, no linkers) just a flat binary file ready for execution.
4. the application converts ascii art into RIC files as used on the lego NXT

although fully commented, if anyone has any questions please feel free to ask.

kind regards

Graham
