One other gotcha: that '%0' above is a compiler-chosen register.  I was

Yeah?!?!!? Must've been lucky, although the way I read it, for that to happen you'd needed to have used "d" not "g". Maybe I *am* lucky after all! *8-)


Amen brother!  All worship at the altar of bit manipulation!

I love fiddling with my bits. ;-) The Joy of Hex!

(First computer was a zx80 with a z80 chip...I'd hand-assemble code, and
poke the values into a string, and then jump to the location of the
screen. When macro assemblers came along, I thought I'd died and gone to
heaven!)

Mine was an Atari 400 with the dead flesh, cold steel underlay keyboard. Made me into a real programmer, risking frostbite and cold burns with every keystroke while learning DLI's and POKEY...sigh....those were the days....and no mortgage either! I recently spoke to an agent here in the UK, an american working here, and we both discovered that we both reckoned Star Raiders to be *the* game of all time! Forgot I was supposed to be looking for a job! God it's dead at the moment here...might have to consider busking.

Sean.
