Subject: 

i have recently discovered DJGPP. i think its totally brilliant, but there
is one minor but annoying drawback: it uses AT&T assembly instead of intel,
which is the version i know. i have a86 and nasm (and i may have tasm with
borland c++ 3.1) and i was wondering would it be better to use inline AT&T
or use one of the other assemblers i have to link code into my executables.
which way would be faster for critical loops (ie 3d graphics rendering)? and
is it possible to configure DJGPP's rhide so that the inline code is passed
to say
nasm rather than gas?

thanks in advance...
