[Implemented] 64bit

It wouldn't be hard to port PB to 64Bit:

The only thing you need is a 64Bit Assambler compiler and C(++) Compiler and Linker. Then simply recompile the Libs. Optimization is the PB User's part. Since the Libs haven't been Optimized for MMX or similar there's no real problem!

64Bit C(++) Compiler & Linker are already included in 64Bit Linux so only the Assambler is missing.(64Bit for Windows can wait since Windows XP64Bit is still in testing phase)

hope to found the right Assambler to to such

Fasm is able to compile to native 64 bit (COFF and ELF) (push fred)

64 bit x86 asm is really different than 32 bits one, i wouldn't call the port 'easy'..

you mentioned before that you like challenge

for my own needs 24 Bits are enough !

Yasm is what you are asking for

i would use an Assembler for that instead of a Assambler, no matter if it is yasm or fasm
