If you mean parts like SYSTEM.INC or FASM.ASM then it's okay Smile As for platform-independent part of assembler, ask someone else Wink

You can modify it and distribute modified versions as long as you follow the restrictions detailed in the license.txt that you get when you download fasm.

To port fasm to your os you have to modify system.inc and fasm.asm (as mike.dld wrote). These files provide an interface to an operating system. You have to put OS specific routines (reading from files, displaying text, etc...) in system.inc file. It would be easier if you copy these two files from win32 distribution and modify them.

The attachments contains the copy of the never finished guide to the flat assembler internals, slightly updated to cover the latest releases.
The second chapter is however complete, and this is the one that should help you in porting fasm to any new operating system.

Unless there is another version outside this forum, this one is the last release of the guide.
