[Nightsoft]

Hi. I'm kinda new in assembler so here's my quetion:

I want to write some text to the screen and I think I'm doing it in a stupid way.
What I want to write is Nightsoft. starting at row c column 24-2C
this is how my code starts:


MOV AX,0200
MOV BX,0000 /* goto XY(0C,24)
MOV DX,0C24
INT 10

MOV AX,094E
MOV BX,0017 /* Write 'N'
MOV CX.0001
INT 10

MOV AX,0200
MOV BX,0000 /* goto XY(0C,25)
MOV DX,0C25
INT 10

MOV AX,0949
MOV BX,0017 /* Write 'I'
MOV CX.0001
INT 10

This code get's pretty long and I wonder if there is some easier way to do it. Some Loop or something. But I really don't know how to put it together.

I'm using Debug. and my code is NOT being executed under DOS
So no DOS Interrupts.

Hope some one can help me.
Thnx.

Using Debug: at a place the IP never reaches (usually behind the last instruction) you can define data:

db 'Nightsoft$'

db : "define byte"
'$' : end-of-string sign (for use with DOS)

This can be used with DOS interrupts but if you have the string somewhere in memory, you can easily create a loop and use INT 10h.
