I am using GenAsm to disassemble a com file. The program seems well designed, and I can get it to generate a .asm file. The problem is that I can not get it to accept my .SEQ files. Since as far as I can tell,the .SEQ files are the only way to throw the switches, I am stuck. I get the error: Unrecognized type in /SEQ file near address 0000H Would Gen Asm users please help me? Thanks in advance. -- Chris Kushmerick kushmer@bnlux0.bnl.gov kushmerick@pofvax.sunysb.edu

I followed the .DOC file but the program did not seem to like it anyway. I would also like to find out why the program does not use the .SEQ file according to the documentation. Is the doc file incorrect? Has anybody actually ever used the .SEQ files? Is there another version that is more recent that 1985(6?)? (sorry, I don't remember the specific year but it is quite old) Any help would be appreciated.

(sorry, I don't remember the >specific year but it is quite old) Trying ASMGEN, I found that the .SEQ file must end with a Control-Z, or else the program hangs. Maybe this is part of the problem you are facing. I remember finding it extremely frustrating until I realized the solution. Richard Stanton pstanton@gsb-what.stanford.edu

In this and all subsequent posts,, Please read GenAsm as AsmGen, My apologies to the author.

Maybe this is part of the problem you are No! The program does not hang, It reports an error in the .SEQ file. -- Chris Kushmerick kushmer@bnlux0.bnl.gov kushmerick@pofvax.sunysb.edu

Is the >doc file incorrect? Has anybody actually ever used the .SEQ files? I had this problem and was really irritated until I discovered that the .seq file has to be terminated by a ^Z. That was all there was to it! I hope this is the right answer for your problem. -- John Dudeck "You want to read the code closely..." jdudeck@Polyslo.CalPoly.Edu -- C.
