Snippet from djasm.y:

>   exe[20] = start_ptr;          /* IP */
>   exe[21] = start_ptr >> 8;
>   exe[22] = 0;                  /* relative CS */
>   exe[23] = 0;
> 
>   time(&now);
>   sprintf(exe+28, "\r\n%s generated from %s by djasm, on %.24s\r\n", argv[2], argv[1], ctime(&now));
>   if (copyright)
>     strncat(exe+36, copyright, 476-strlen(exe+36));
>   strcat(exe+36, "\r\n\032");


I understand why it says 476-strlen(exe+36), I think, as 476+36 is
512. But why 36? Why not 28, which I probably would have used?


Right,
