Appreciated Jeroen. The current discussion is about whether Brian can use the default assembler with MSVC. Unfortunately that has pretty massive consequences for which assembler is used. That is independent of your original question. Does nasm accept MASM files. We could perhaps switch to including that if Brian switches to MASM.
