You guys remember Qbasic, you could put your entire program in one line of code as long as you put a colon between statements.Code:title Hello World Program
dosseg
.model small
.stack 100h
.data hello_message db 'Hello, World!',0dh,0ah,'$'
.code
main proc
mov ax,@data
mov ds,ax
mov ah,9
mov dx,offset hello_message
int 21h
mov ax,4C00h
int 21h
main endp
end main
Code:DECLARE SUB Greet():DIM SHARED greeting$ = "Hello World":CALL Greet():SYSTEM:SUB Greet():? greeting$:END SUB
