to Bill Sommerfeld:

Thanks for explanation on
        movw 0x2e(%ebx),%ax

Is that NASM style, so new to me?  Or GNU?  I am more accustomed to TASM
(Borland) and MASM 6.00, that was long ago.  MASM copy that I have is on 5.25"
1.2 MB diskettes, and my 5.25" 1.2 MB drive apparently went bad, and the hard
disk I installed MASM on apparently went bad too.  On to newer things?
