Is it possible to convert assembly code stored in a .txt file to a more readable (i.e. high-level ;-)) form, so that I can work out what's going on in a program? Clive ![[infinity]](/data/assets/smilies/infinity.gif "[infinity] [infinity]")

If you're analyzing an existing program which you know is written in an HLL, you can prolly find some sort of decompiler for the HLL if it's common enough.
Otherwise, if it's source code... a decompiler may still get it... but your brain is prolly a good enough tool. "Information has a tendency to be free. Which means someone will always tell you something you don't want to know."
