76439 2002-09-04 12:26:00 anyone know what a "disassembler" programme is? jayal (1291)
76440 2002-09-04 12:33:00 Yes.

Put it this way, if you don't know what a Dasm does, DON'T PLAY WITH ONE!

A disassembler takes a program, and sort of diassembles it. But don't think you can go and extract the source code out of windows by dasming it. It's kinda complicated, but basically, if you're not a programmer (or person with an 'alternative' career) , then you don't need, and won't ever use one.

However, if you do need one (now that you know wot it is) I can reccomend WinDASM.

76442 2002-09-05 05:00:00 Real Programmers can disassemble code "by inspection". B-) Only wimps use disassemblers. :D The simplest one around is DEBUG -- provided by MS in DOS, so it's "a bit" limited. Graham L (2)
