 Hi friends,
              
 This is the text regarding the operation of the compiler TASM
 (ver 2.0) I have surfed the internet and eventually have arrived
 at the conclusion that the use of this compiler is better for 
 the dos based programs rather than using microsoft's MASM.
      In this directory you would find programs (compiler TASM,
 linker TLINK,etc ....).
 1.  Move this directory to a suitable drive 
     (In my case I have used  C:\ tasm>).
 2.  I have purposely left two source codes uncompiled.
 3.  Once you have executed the step1 goto "START" command on the 
     toolbar of your desktop.
 4.  HERE you would find the command  "RUN".
 5.  In this window type "command".
 6.  Now a dos screen appears.Goto the directory where yo have 
     placed TASM.
 7.  In my case it appears as...
           "d:\programs\desktop\123> " 
     then to goto c:\ drive I type "c:"
 8.        "c:\"
     To goto folder TASM I type...
            "cd tasm"
     Here 'cd' stands for change directory.
           "c:\tasm>"
 9.  TO compile file "1stprog.asm" we follow the following procedure.
     Type "tasm 1stprog.asm".
 10. This would compile the file and convert the file to object file
     if no errors are present.
 11. Then type "tlink 1stprog.obj" to create an executable.
 12. To run your program type simply "1stprog" and your done....
     You should see "HELLO WORLD!".
 13. Enjoy the benifits of your programming.
 14. Repeat the steps for another source code.
 15. I have also provided code for "fire!" ( Original Code by ADAM HYDE [ http://www.faroc.com.au/~blackcat ]).you should see fire on 
     the screen.
