+The Yasm Modular Assembler Project
+==================================
+
+Yasm is a complete rewrite of the NASM assembler under the “new” BSD License
+(some portions are under other licenses, see COPYING for details).
+
+Yasm currently supports the x86 and AMD64 instruction sets, accepts NASM and
+GAS assembler syntaxes, outputs binary, ELF32, ELF64, 32 and 64-bit Mach-O,
+RDOFF2, COFF, Win32, and Win64 object formats, and generates source debugging
+information in STABS, DWARF 2, and CodeView 8 formats.
+
+Yasm can be easily integrated into Visual Studio 2005/2008 and 2010 for
+assembly of NASM or GAS syntax code into Win32 or Win64 object files.
