Accordingly you can also do this to determine string length
MSG DB "gRAinNE$" ; define message
EMSG EQU $-MSG-1 ; msg length - 1
lea si, msg
mov cx, EMSG ; cx holds message length
The line "EMSG EQU $-MSG-1". EQU is an assembler directive similar to the "db" instruction (db stands for declare byte) EQU declares constants, that is, after you've used EQU to assign a value to a variable, you cannot change the variable's value afterwards.
Refer to $-MSG-1. Aside from '$' being string terminator, it can also signify "your location in the program". So basically, "$-MSG-1" signifies the current location minus the (MSG) start of string, which is consequently, the length of the string! -1, because string starts from 0 to length-1.
