I guess I must have overlooked the info on the preprocessor directives
Primarilly interested in one to change the syntax of operands.
source first, destination second

I search for parameter order and it seems to be there is no direcrive to specify the parameter order for to switch to the AT&T syntax. But i am not sure.

AT&T Syntax
Parameter order: Source before the destination.

Intel Syntax
Parameter order: Destination before source.

There is no such directive in FASM. I know only one assembler that supports AT&T syntax - GAS and it was forced to support Intel syntax, because no one liked AT&T. Very Happy

Hehe, people don't like AT&T (the company)?

And the asm syntax that AT&T designed is also an abomination for humans to read.

The only thing I know about AT&T is that they invented stupid x86 assembly syntax and somehow succeeded to promote it to the Unix world, thus making assembly programming for Unix and Linux really hard for many years.

This line of text comes from fasm.txr:
Flat assembler by default uses the Intel syntax for
the assembly instructions, although you can customize
it using the preprocessor capabilities
(macroinstructions and symbolic constants).
Implying that there is a directive/macro or someway to switch it.

Here you go:

Code:

irp op,mov,add,sub,xor { ; <--- add more opcodes here
    macro op source,dest \{
               op dest,source
      \}
}

You can extend the opcode list for whatever you need.
