CODEGEN.SLC is a simple parser that accepts an expression from input and writes 80x86 compatible assembly code to output. In this case, CODEGEN.SLC has been compiled to CODEGEN.COM and is being run under a DOS emulator, with your expression "stuffed" into the input.

executing "codegen" via DOSCMD and stuffing data "a + b" to STDIN...

> a + b
; a + b
	mov	ax,a
	push	ax
	mov	ax,b
	pop	bx
	add	ax,bx

> 
; 

Bye!

Notes:
  • Lines starting with ">" are the stuffed input. Lines starting with ";" are comments in the output.
  • If this code was assembled and executed, the result would be in AX.
  • Yes, this is really the output of a DOS executable running on a FreeBSD (unix) web server!
