fasm: command not found

[groundwater]

Not really sure how to download this. Found fast assembler I'm not really sure what to do next.

Unfortunately, fasm is not supported on OSX officially AFAIK and outputs error

error:out of memory.

But there is a patch that fixes this bug on OSX.

Or you can download precompiled version here: https://github.com/runtimejs/toolchain-bin-linux/raw/master/fasm-osx.zip (from http://board.flatassembler.net/topic.php?p=144779#144779) Just put fasm binary into PATH.

It may be a good idea to switch to other assembler at some point because of this.
