MASM won't support some of the syntax used with TASM, and it also has
annoying bugs that may force you to rewrite some expressions that look
perfectly fine.

TASM has two modes: "ideal" mode and "quirk" mode. In quirk mode, it
emulates MASM. In ideal mode it acts rationally, at least for an
assembler.
