AFAIK, HLASM has no such option; I like it, but would prefer that the DROP for 
a protected register require special unprotect syntax. One issue that needs to 
be hashed out is how to handle dependent USING..

Subject: An idea I got when researching a bug - warnings when a specific 
register is changed

Since the assembler knows which instructions modify which registers, it would
be nice if there was a way to "protect" a register for a code range.

Perhaps

                         USING area,Rx,protect

Any alteration of the register until the DROP would cause a warning message on
the instruction.

Or might such an option exist?

Should you use the mailblocks package and expect a response from me,
you should preauthorize the dissensoftware.com domain.

I very rarely bother responding to challenge/response systems,
especially those from irresponsible companies.
