Everything successful os8088 up to now was written successful assembly language, 1 processor instruction astatine a time. There is now a C compiler for it, which is simply a acold quicker measurement to constitute a program. To find retired whether it could transportation thing real, I wrote a 2nd connection processor pinch it -- and it turned retired excessively large for the representation a programme gets, truthful it comes successful 2 pieces.
