This directory contains some tools, which extract various types of information
|
|
from the symbolic information file generated by flat assembler, and present
|
|
them in a human-readable form.
|
|
|
|
The listing tool creates a listing of assembled code - this tool needs to be
|
|
executed in the exact configuration, in which the assembly was taking place.
|
|
All the source files and the output file aswell must not have been moved or
|
|
modified - if any of them was altered before generating the listing, it is
|
|
going to contain garbage instead of useful information. For example, if you
|
|
assembled the file with the command like:
|
|
|
|
fasm example.asm example.exe -s example.fas
|
|
|
|
you should generate listing by immediately running this command from the same
|
|
directory:
|
|
|
|
listing example.fas example.lst
|
|
|
|
In addition, the "-a" switch is recommended to use in the case of executable
|
|
formats, as it allows to get the run-time addresses for all the assembled code
|
|
and data.
|
|
|
|
The preprocessed source and symbols dump tools are simpler ones - they only
|
|
need the symbolic information file as input and generate proper output text
|
|
regardless of the availability of other files.
