PROGRAMS FOR LINUX I386

This directory contains various small programs written in i386
Assembly. The syntax is AT&T.

To assemble, you'll need to install the GNU Assembler.

You can assemble a program manually. Below is an example for the
`false' program:

  as -o false.o false.s
  dd if=false.o of=false bs=1 skip=52 count=96
  chmod 755 false

The last two commands correct the GNU Assembler.

Alternatively, if you've installed the Thompson Shell, you can execute
`build.sh' to assemble and link all the programs.

For reference, the file `syscall.txt' contains the names of Linux
system call numbers.
