This message is just to express appreciation for an exciting new
introduction by Jim Schwarz to 80386 architecture and assembly
language programming with DJGPP GAS, the GNU assembler (as.exe):

http://www.delorie.com/djgpp/doc/ug/asm/about-386.html

As someone interested in learning GAS as my first experience with
assembly language, I found that this tutorial got me to the point
where I was ready to try writing a bit of inline assembly. What a
great surprise to find such a valuable new resource at just the moment
I was looking for it!

This introduction to the 386 architecture is only the first
installment of a work still in progress: the assembly language portion
of the DJGPP User's Guide available -- where else? -- at DJ's site:

http://www.delorie.com/djgpp/doc/ug/

Also, there are two other DJGPP tutorials on GAS (AT&T) syntax which
I'm finding very helpful as a rank novice, although they assume some
experience programming with the Intel syntax (e.g. TASM, MASM).

The first is the famous guide by Brennan "Bas" Underwood:

The other is one of a series of DJGPP tutorials by avly AT castle DOT net:

Of course, I don't want to minimize the helpfulness of GNU's own GAS
documentation:

More generally, the DJGPP User's Guide looks like a great resource for
newer DJGPP users; it takes things step by step, and nicely
supplements the information in README.1ST and the FAQ.

Most respectfully,
