I don't see where this is possible in HLASM. But some languages all a _ character in numeric literals, and simply ignoring it. Often used in decimal literals to separate thousands, and in binary literals to separate into nybbles (4 bits). It is much easier to recognize 16_777_216 than 16777216. And know that B'0110_1001' is exactly one byte in length. Does anybody else think this might be useful? Given that it would be a "simple" change, I am wondering if I might be able to figure out how to make a change to FLOWASM to do this for me.
