Install GCC Compiler
It has been my experience that over the years that in different UNIX environments that the first thing I do, on a new platform, is to install the latest GCC compiler. GCC is a cross platform compiler and opens your world to myriad utilities. <BR>

It it my strong suggestion that you install the GCC compiler on at least one of your platforms so you can compile executables specific to your environment and architecture easily. Any search for code that I would do to would be in GCC archives, BTW.

I've worked in big HP shops, Sun shops, etc. in all those shops, I've always installed a GCC compiler very quickly. If you can't do it on a production platform, the next best thing is to install on a development platform in the lab.

YASM_PARSERS(7) 					      Yasm Supported Parsers						   YASM_PARSERS(7)

NAME

       yasm_parsers - Yasm Supported Parsers (Assembler Syntaxes)

SYNOPSIS

       yasm -p parser [-r preproc] ...

DESCRIPTION

       The standard Yasm distribution includes a number of modules for different parsers (assembler syntaxes).

       The parser is selected on the yasm(1) command line by use of the -p parser command line option.

NASM PARSER

       NASM syntax, selected with -p nasm, is the most full-featured syntax supported by Yasm. Yasm is nearly 100% compatible with NASM for 16-bit
       and 32-bit x86 code. Yasm additionally supports 64-bit AMD64 code with Yasm extensions to the NASM syntax; see yasm_arch(7) for details.
       NASM syntax is the Yasm default.

GAS PARSER

       The GNU Assembler (GAS) is the de-facto cross-platform assembler for modern Unix systems, and is used as the backend for the GCC compiler.
       Yasm's support for GAS syntax is moderately good, although immature: not all directives are supported, and only 32-bit x86 and AMD64
       architectures are supported. There is also no support for the GAS preprocessor. Despite these limitations, Yasm's GAS syntax support is
       good enough to handle essentially all x86 and AMD64 GCC compiler output. The GAS parser can be selected with -p gas.
