	I'm looking for suggestions of where to find a good dis-assembler
for the 80x86 under MS-DOS.  Ideally it would handle instruction sets
from 8086 to 80486, as well as the corresponding FPU instructions.  It
also should be able to emit MASM source.  I have tried the following
implementations: ASMGEN, ID12, MD86, and SNOOP.  SNOOP was the only version
that I found to be even close to working.  The others imposed limits on
.EXE size, or assumed that the whole disassembly would fit in RAM, etc.
SNOOP V1.01 looks like it handles most programs ok, but suffers some brain
death when building a symbol table.....it creates symbol references that
don't get defined.

	Any pointers would be appreciated,
	Terry
