Speed up development with the integrated Programmer's WorkBench.If you've used an earlier version of MASM, you'll find many new capabilities in version 6.0, and you'll discover that you can perform familiar operations more quickly:
Speed up development with the integrated Programmer's WorkBench.
Build programs more easily with the new “make” facility (NMAKE) and PWB's powerful project capabilities.
Track down program bugs and logic errors more quickly with the new Microsoft CodeViewÒ debugger version 3.12. With an 80286 or 80386 processor and 1 megabyte or more of RAM, you can debug a program up to 640K in size in real mode.
Access MASM language, assembler, linker, and utility documentation with the Microsoft Advisor and QuickHelp online reference systems.
Cross-reference program procedures with the PWB Source Browser.
Create OS/2 applications with increased support for dynamic-link libraries (DLLs), multiple threads, and improved debugging options.
Edit source code with PWB's mouse- and window-oriented editor.
For a detailed list of new language features, see Appendix A, “Differences between MASM 6.0 and 5.1,” in the Programmer's Guide.
