Hi guys,

I found some code in the Freebasic-Forums.

Code:

#Macro Bloat( Size )
   
   asm
      ' Switch to/Create the specified section
      .section .Bloated
      ' Pad it with chars to inflate the size
      .fill Size, 1, 0
   End asm
   
#EndMacro

I'm using Purebasic, which uses fasm and allows inline assembler.
Does anybody know how to translate the above code to fasm
(Of course just the 2 asm lines)
I don't know which assembler Freebasic uses, so... Shocked

GAS (like GCC) Crying or Very sad

And the problem is ? Confused

> Does anybody know how to translate the above code to fasm

Code:

db size dup (0)

Guess ^^^

But above "code" is bad (compresses to nothing Crying or Very sad

), there is a better way:

Code:

file 'crap.xxx':0,size

Download > 10 GiB of public domain crap, put it all together in one file
using TAR, name it crap.xxx ... and use for your "development" Laughing
