It depends of what you want to do with FASM... Are you sure you know what FASM is?

Go to the examples/elfexe directory and assemble the obligatory "Hello, World!": fasm hello.asm.

My guess is it's still unfinished Wink

There are many text editors in Linux. You probably have more than one in your Linux distribution. gedit for example. But if you are familiar with FASMW you can use it in Linux through Wine.

I've searched high and low, and I haven't found any editor with the fasmw/delphi/turbo pascal feel.

Indeed. That is why I am writing FreshEdit.
But the work goes slow... Sad

Necromancer's DOS Navigator has a Linux port, so you could use that. The FASM IDE was heavily inspired by DOS Navigator. (Or just use FASMD under DOSEMU, but I doubt you want to do that.)

I'll check it out!

I guess you could do cross-compiling too. Might be the best solution.

Geany is nice if you're looking for a "click a button and see what happens" UI element. It has a configurable build/execute button that you can configure to run arbitrary commands. But to use fasm from the normal command line, you need to install it. The canonical way to install programs that aren't managed by the package manager is to put them in /usr/local/bin. To do that, run "sudo cp [fasm] /usr/local/bin" where [fasm] should be replaced by where fasm is, without the [].

What about

Code:

emacs -nw foo.asm

or just:

Code:

emacs foo.asm

if don't have emacs-x. Also,if don't have emacs installed on your system by default,it's easy to get:

Code:

apt-get emacs

(needs be root)

If your repositories don't provide emacs, jmpto http://www.gnu.org/software/emacs/ and download from FTP site and compiler yourself. It's easy. There is some documentation,if you need.
