At first I try to create windows executable and convert it to other dos format but I must to endless wait.

Code:

include 'format/format.inc'

format  PE console
entry start

section '.text' code readable executable

start:
        mov     ah,9
        mov     edx,Hello
        int     21h

        mov     ah,4Ch
        int     21h

section '.data' data writeable readable

Hello   db      'Hello World!!!',13,10,36

section '.reloc' fixups data readable discardable

Thank you, there was a small bug in "section" macro that is now corrected.

Well, there is also a question of whether to allow "writable" synonym for "writeable". fasm supports them both, but it is undocumented (only "writeable" is officially stated in the manual). A simple "writable equ writeable" would solve the problem anyway.

The bug was manifesting with any unrecognized attribute, no difference if it was "aaa" or "writable". The macros by default recognize only the "writeable" variant (as this is the one that was documented for fasm). In the variant of FORMAT.INC that comes with Windows headers for fasmg I have added the "define writable? writeable", however.
