My my ... you're still as insolent as ever ... you didn't learn your lessons
from C_ECHO, C_PLUSPLUS or 80XXX, did you?

It would be nice if DJGPP wrote the code for us, but it doesn't do that
either...

I've got $12.75 that says you'd send a flame to the maintainer(s) of said
documentation within five minutes of reading the first paragraph, you
twirp ...
... in any case, the URLs for inline ASM guides have been flying around
this newsgroup every day, so I don't know why you haven't seen them
already ...
>The stupid opcode:input:ouput:modified system is really annoying.
IMO, it's a great system.
Of course, if you don't like it, delete DJGPP, go back to Borland or
Watcom and never sully this newsgroup with your postings again.
ITMT, fix your <fornicating> newsreader, oh Incompetent One...
>I can't see any benefit from using it.
You probably couldn't see any benefit from using toilet-paper either.
