    Why would anyone want to implement these in assembly language? Rendering these formats is a highly complex matter and implementing that in assembly language would be an enormuous effort that would hardly yield any noticeable performance improvement at all.

    There's a bunch of open source implementaions in C/C++ available, probably in other high-level languages as well. Why not use these?

    If someone would have imlemented that in assembly language, that would be a highly specialized custom solution that certainly wouldn't be released as open source. And even if you could get it, you probably wouldn't really be happy with it, because it would be inflexible due to its high degree of specialization.

    I was thrown out of college for cheating on the metaphysics exam; I looked into the soul of the boy sitting next to me.

    This is a snakeskin jacket! And for me it's a symbol of my individuality, and my belief... in personal freedom.
