To this day, one of my favourite word processors is WriteNow, which was ~100,000 lines of assembly.
- pjmlp 5mo agoWhy is writing inline Assembly considered an advantage of C, a language extension even not part of ISO, and always used to point out issues when other languages make use of it? Naturally there had to be a balance, until mid-90s what we consider AAA games, were mostly Assembly.
- WillAdams 5mo agoI didn't mention C. The observation was that linking in the Pascal library was problematic when one was storing everything on a single 400KB Micro Floppy.
- pjmlp 5mo agoIt was implied from my previous post, the story regarding size and the reference to Assembly. Sorry if misunderstood.
