  • Looking for .COM program sources in NASM Assembly

    I'm looking for source code of MS-DOS .COM programs in real-mode 8086 Assembly written in NASM syntax. Any repositories or recommendations?
    I'm learning Assembly programming under MS-DOS (and MikeOS) and cross-developing on Linux with NASM. To avoid the complexity of x86 segmentation, for the time being I prefer to focus on single-segment programs, as I plan to write small programs anyway. So I'd like to study examples of how such systems organize and reference data and code. I searched a bit but found remarkably little .COM code.

    Try some of the older assembler books and manuals found online, have a look at their more complex examples and adjust to nasm syntax
