I tried it on one of my programs, and found I resisted posting the first time this went by, but I'll throw in my two cents now. DeSmet C will produce assembler output. Presumably there are no major bugs since the compiler normally sends its output through the assembler. Two faults - Only two segments supported -- one code, one data. - The assembler output is for DeSmet's assembler, not the Microsoft assembler.
