Requirements

Dosbox installed on your machine

Compile

To compile do these steps: open dosbox and mount directory where programs are located, in my case I have EXP.asm on directory path on volume d:

Mount directory:

Z:> mount d d:\path

Visit the mounted directory:

Z:> d:

Compile using Turbo Assembler:

D:> tasm snake.asm

To produce executable file, link object file and macros, using Turbo Linker

We are using /t param because we specify in assembly the use of ".model tiny" so the executable file will be a .COM and not a .exe

D:> tlink snake.obj /t

Execute

To execute the compiled program, just do:

D:> snake.com

Debug [EXTRA]

If you want to debug the program, use Turbo Debugger:

D:> td snake.COM
