\H{whatsnasm} What Is NASM?
The Netwide Assembler, NASM, is an 80x86 and x86-64 assembler designed for
portability and modularity. It supports a range of object file
formats, including Linux and \c{*BSD} \c{a.out}, \c{ELF}, \c{COFF}, \c{Mach-O},
Microsoft 16-bit \c{OBJ}, \c{Win32} and \c{Win64}. It will also output plain
binary files. Its syntax is designed to be simple and easy to understand, similar
to Intel's but less complex. It supports from the upto and including \c{Pentium},
\c{P6}, \c{MMX}, \c{3DNow!}, \c{SSE}, \c{SSE2}, \c{SSE3} and \c{x64} opcodes. NASM has
a strong support for macro conventions.

supports all currently known x86 architectural extensions, and has
strong support for macros.
