Assemble (Description)

────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────
 
     The Assemble (A) command assembles 8086-family (8086/87/88,
     80186/286, 80287/387, and 80286/386/486 unprotected) instruction
     mnemonics and places the resulting instruction code into memory at
     a specified address. The only 8086-family mnemonics that cannot be
     assembled are 80386/486 protected-mode mnemonics. In addition, the
     CodeView debugger can assemble 80286 instructions that use the
     expanded 386/486 registers.
 
     If <address> is specified, the assembly starts at that address;
     otherwise, the current assembly address is assumed.
 
     The assembly address is normally the current address, or the
     address pointed to by the CS and IP registers. However, when you
     use the Assemble command, the assembly address is set to the
     address immediately following the last assembled instruction.
 
     When you enter any command that executes code (Trace,
     Program Step, Go, or Animate), the assembly address is
     reset to the current address.
