Greetings.

While using D iasm I noticed something interesting.

I was trying to get instruction pointer by using call trick and noticed that in opposite to nasm (and probably others assemblers) D iasm uses $ as next instruction pointer.

Documentation mentions that dolar sign is usable in Jcc (or jmp only? not sure) and call instructions.

It doesn't work.

call $ ; this should jump to next instruction and store RIP on stack
       ; if I understand correctly?
pop RAX;

Compiler slaps me with information that $ is bad operand for call instruction.

Am I doing something wrong or it is a bug?
Thanks!

Will answer myself :p
s/call $/call near ptr $
fixed the thing.

Sorry for distributions
