  1. @s0ftwave1662 Here i have posted some sample code for a 256-byte demo running on Linux. The source code contains very few comments.

    gitlab.com/metagrowing/demos

    32 Bit Assembler code that is able to run on 64 Bit Linux Distro.

    “Graphics” here refers to the ability of ESC sequences to change colors in the Linux terminal.

    “Sound” means the hardware beeper or the notification sound of a desktop manager.

  2. I have repeatedly heard that COM files and 16-bit DOS are used for 256-byte size coding.

    How does this work on 64-bit Linux? The ELF64 header would require two-thirds of the space. Pointers are four times larger than on 16-bit systems....

    Here are my sources for 256-byte size coding on modern Linux:
    gitlab.com/metagrowing/demos

    Tools:
    nasm - the Netwide Assembler
    xz compressor
