Re: TIB:86ASM Module Builder




I concur with all of you that if you don't make a debugger the project is
pointless.  I guess then if you were to start a project like this the best
bet would be to find out where others failed.  O by the way who of you is
going to do this?  Or is this just a thread of thoery?  Well regardless of
that if you were to start you should check the group that was trying to do
this a while ago was it i don't recall the name although i can look it up if
there is a great interest.  Well i just thought i would throw that in and
see what you all had to say about it.
