Final Fantasy Hacktics

I'm trying to make a mod for my game that allows chocobos, and perhaps other monster units, to wear armour at least and have a separate job wheel from human units at best. However, Since this doesn't seem to be possible using fftpatcher or lioneditor, i read about and found that an ASM hack is needed to recode the game at its fundamentals. I also have no idea where I can acquire something like this, since google isn't helping. a link to a download for a program that can read assembly code would be greatly appreciated, thank you.
