4.1 Overview
The LSI Logic Assembler (NASM) is a DOS command line driven
assembler that supports the LSI Logic SCSI SCRIPTS processor family.
NASM creates a “C” header file from the SCSI SCRIPTS source file. It
assembles SCSI SCRIPTS for inclusion into SCSI device driver software.
Inputs to the assembler are command line switches, as well as input and
output file names. The assembler produces comprehensive error
messages, cross referenced list files, and “C” include files. The source
file may be created using any standard text editor that creates an ASCII
file as output.
