Running the programs

1. Run on Masm using DOSbox

Run the following command on terminal:

dosbox

This should open the pre-installed DOSBox. Run the following commands in the DOSBox terminal:

mount c /path/to/directory/of/asm/file

c:

masm <fileName.asm>

link <fileName.obj>

<fileName.exe>

Currently the required .exe files have been added in the sub-directory itself which can be run directly.

2. Run with emu8086 and Wine (faster and better)

To setup Wine, run on terminal:

sudo apt-get update
sudo apt-get install wine
sudo apt-get install virtualbox

Download the 8086emu.exe file from /Linux directory.
Right click and open-with Wine.

Install and get started by directly editing and running .asm files in the IDE.
