Today I published the next version of Fresh - 2.0.3
The main difference is that the big part of the project is implemented using FreshLib and thus is portable.
The only pure Win32 part of the project is the GUI, because FreshLib is not yet implemented to the needed extent.
After this release, I will concentrate mainly on FreshLib in order to make Fresh fully portable at least for Linux and Win32.

WhatsNew.txt wrote:
version 2.0.3 alpha (15.01.2011)

[+] The next in a row, big restructure of the source code:

FreshLib is implemented for following libraries:
- macros (macro/allmacros.asm)
- equates (equates/allequates.asm)
- imports (imports/allimports.asm)
- the structure of the program ( compiler/executable.inc )
- memory allocations ( data/memory.asm )
- data handling (data/arrays.asm; data/memstream.asm)
- file operations (data/files.asm)
- String operations (data/strlib.asm) StrLib is now portable as well.
For details, read the header of StrLib.asm file.
Some functions are not backward compatible with the old version.

[+] Updated compiler to FASM v1.69.29
[+] New 'text' macro introduced. The final goal is to provide automatic handling
of the string constants in order to avoid duplications in definitions and
waste of label names. Unfortunately, the speed of the macros is too low for
practical use, so now only a stub is provided for future development.
[-] Auto set for "lib" directory alias in Fresh.ini
[-] Fixed bug in AsmEdit
[-] Fixed bug in AddCompilationStatistics (fasm.asm)
[-] Fixed very old bug in LabelsList.asm.

Hi ouadji.
About the multiline comments and the error message - how it is implemented? I am not willing to make changes in the FASM compiler. Because of compatibility reasons you know. Smile

About the bug reported - I simply can't reproduce it. Maybe I have to change to another skin or something.

Regards

The modified compiler is 100% compatible with the original compiler.
I'm agree with you and It's also my first priority.
Here is my additional code to display the number of bytes out of range.(+)

Code:
;==========================================================
;data +

                db 11
mess_999        db ' >999 bytes'
                db 06
mess_bytes      db ' bytes'
                db 07
mess_1byte      db ' 1 byte'

block           dd ?

factor_div      db 0,1,10,100

               je      .direct_

                mov     esi,mess_999
                cmp     eax,1000
            jnc     .direct_

                mov     ecx,3

@@:            div     [factor_div + ecx]

Hm, the changes of so many files from the FASM distribution is definitely not "compatible". In every new version of FASM you have to make these changes again and again. This is what I want to avoid.

ok, but i think this is an interesting feature.
For those interested in the optimization, if only a few bytes are out of range, this feature helps to see if it is possible or not to remove this error.
What do the fasm users think about that? useful, useless?
