Re: nasm support?

[Timothee Besset]

Thanks for the info. I will look at it. Right now I've been trying to do it 
with Command statements, stuff like:
Command $env 'file.o', 'file.nasm', system('/usr/bin/nasm -f elf -o ' . 
$WORK_PATH . 'file.o ' . $WORK_PATH . 'file.nasm'
but it works like shit, cons keeps saying me there are errors or something
had to hack it to a shell script for now

Well .. ideally I would just put a 'file.nasm' anywhere in Program statement 
for instance, with some config for NASM command line in the cons object. Just 
like you can put .c or .cpp files in Program statement.
