It's like asking for a tutorial to write       a German novel, but refusing to first learn the German language. You       don't need instructions how to put an empty sheet of paper into the       typewriter and how to transfer letters to the paper as long as you       don't understand the language you want to use for your novel. But       if you refuse to learn German, you can write the novel in English and       use Google to translate it to German.              So, start to read the few thousands pages of documentation I gave you.       And once you have understood them, you can start to read the additional       10 pages how to use the assembler to generate a binary from your source       code. But if you refuse to learn the assembly language and the OS interface,       you can write your code in any HLL and use an automatic translator to       convert it to assembly code (called compiler). But that has nothing       to do with assembly programming.              An other way to start assembly programming would be to not use an       x86 CPU and Windows 64 but a simple micro-controller with no       OS at all (like AVR). The instruction set is much simpler and there       is no OS interface to understand, so you can start programming after       a few hours reading the processor manual. And in this case you will       also find the sort of tutorial you want.              --- SoupGate-Win32 v1.05        * Origin: you cannot sedate... all the things you hate (1:229/2)    |
