Hi All,
I'm new here and also a new fasm user. For starting, I want to build my fasm from source.
Any idea?

maybe
fasm SOURCE\WIN32\fasm.asm SOURCE\WIN32\fasm.exe
could work? (I am not sure what you want)

Are you wanting to create the fasm executable or an executable from your own code?

I want to create the fasm assembler from scratch (source).
I think that:
$ fasm fasm.asm fasm
works fine.
But is there any compilation options to get an optimized fasm (like -O3 ...)?
Thanks
Younès

there aren't any such options. Only option FASM takes is size of memory to allocate, and it isn't needed unless you needto compile large sources. Fasm is very straightforward and all characteristics of generated file are set in right in source. btw, all possible instruction optimizations are done automatically (jump size, choosing shorter instruction opcode etc.), and rest can be acheived by macros.

What other compilation options would you want?

Nay it is not like you are compiling a C code or soemthing like that.

Thank you. I understand now. I'll hope that learning fasm is not to hard ...

Younès

if you can code any assembler then no, you just have to read FASM's documentation (except part describing instructions)
