Re: NOOB QUESTION: learning machine code

CHM converters on and offline, from CHM to Word Doc, here: https://duckduckgo.com/?q=convert+chm+t ... doc&ia=web

There's an eBook program called Calibre, which might be useful too. It handles many formats. It's at https://calibre-ebook.com/

Cheers,

Re: Assembly eComic - Issue 9, now available!

Marvelous stuff Monsieur Dunbar. I like reading your missives even though I can't understand them. The cover art to your eComic is a nice visual analogy of assembly language programming. Apparently the cover art makes VanPeebles' eyes go funny. Given that you have managed to write a program that us...
