*Grumbles* stupid new timetable.
*START ASM PLZ*
/*
Basic formula to get result for P
Formula: P = d / 10 + 1
Variables and their CPU Register equivilants:
d = eax
p = ebx
*/
mov eax, 0Ah ;set d to 10.
idiv eax, 0Ah ;divides d by 10
inc eax ;Adds 1 to d
mov ebx, eax ;moves our result, and we're done!
*END ASM PLZ*
That, and I've been caught again on JJ2 about giving servers illegal exceptions. Yaaaaaaay. Unreal is much better anyways.
I made a program in QBasic some time ago that wrote a string to a little LCD screen that i have (2*16 chars) in dos. The model is an Ampire 162B HD44780 compatible
So then i decided to write it in C and use the command line. For some strange reason i got the idea that the 3.81kb program was too big. So i made a little assembly program out of it. I was quite upset that i couldnt get it smaller than 108 bytes
Well here is teh code for it.
SECTION .text

PUSH ES

MOV BX, SendCommandAND

MOV CX, 3H
