>What is ML.exe?

ML.exe is Microsoft's machine language assembler.
It turns ASM source code into ML. It was used to
write the most speed critical parts of the windows
operating system. In more recent history it has become 
available free. You can download ML.exe as part of the
MASM32 project. (READ THE LISENCE!) Some people prefer 
Borland's Turbo Assembler (TASM), however at $0 Microsoft 
got the price right. I was somewhat skeptical at first,
but after spending some time with it I've got to admit
it's a very powerful tool. Writing entire apps in ASM
is still a right pain, but when used for small, speed 
critical routines, it makes a real diffrence. Elink
is all about making embedded machine language routines
for Euphoria quick and simple to produce.
