I'm starting assembler-programming on windows and, as programmer, i'm used to that, when writing code, to stop at column 80. But with winass-programming this seems to be impossible with all these long-name parameters (e.g. MB_ICONINFORMATION).

My editor breaks every line that moves beyond column 80; sure, i could change that but i personally would hate it...

Is someone of you struggling with the same problem? Can i force the fasm-compiler to accept statements that span over multiple lines? I believe i've read something like that somewhere, but couldn't find it in the readme after a quick glance. Thanks!

you could use " ,\ "

eg.

Code:

invoke myprocedure,\
        var1, var2, somelongnamevar3, morelonglonglongvar4,\
        longlongvar5, var6
