On some machines, part of the RAM is erased.

Some people say "IN F,(C)" is undocumented. But it was in my documentation.
Anyway, it is a useful instruction, which has a very important role in the
Copper Bars part of Almost Real.

Self-modifying code: I used it, but I could do without as in those
applications it only speeded up things a little bit.
Oh, actually filling in the address in a jump instruction is self-modifying
code as well... I use that very often because it's so easy.

Stack feedback: what is that?
