For a general purpose I ported the intel2gas converter to Cygwin a while
ago.
It is user friendly in a  sense that one can edit the databases of syntax.
Run the intel2gas on a Intel asm file and it converts it to an asm file
which
as.exe understands.  Because I know nothing about writing devices drivers
therefore the database was almost useless for big projects.  As a test case
I used it on a few simple asm code and it converted _MOST_ of the code
to syntax which GCC asm understood.
