I wish to donate an intel chip-speed algorithm to perl users.

It works exclusively on 64bit x64 compatible CPUs (mac, windows, linux at least).

What would be the best way to make this available, and what build instructions (if any) do I need for those platforms so users can get and use my module ?

Is anyone aware of any existing assembler .xs modules that work at least on linux, preferable also mac and maybe windows ?

If anyone has suggestions for which assembler toolchains and debugging environments I should use for build pre-release testing - those would also be greatly received! Chris.

Snippets of code should be wrapped in <code> tags not <pre> tags. In fact, <pre> tags should generally be avoided. If they must be used, extreme care should be taken to ensure that their contents do not have long lines (<70 chars), in order to prevent horizontal scrolling (and possible janitor intervention).
Want more info? How to link or How to display code and escape characters are good places to start.
