SUB
Usage: SUB dest,src Modifies flags: AF CF OF PF SF ZF
The 'src' is subtracted from the 'dest' and the result is stored in the destination.

SUB performs integer subtraction: it subtracts its second operand from its first, and leaves the result in its destination (first) operand. The flags are set according to the result of the operation: in particular, the carry flag is affected and can be used by a subsequent SBB instruction.
EXAMPLE:
call 'USER32.GetWindowRect' D$hwnd, WindowX
mov eax D$WindowX | sub D$WindowW eax
mov eax D$WindowY | sub D$WindowH eax
