I'm sorry for the confusion. Are there differnt names for the d,a, usp, ssp, pc and sr
registers, and the ones found at memory location 0xfffff000 on a M68k Chip?
>>What I want to do: is to find a way (hopefully in C) to read theese registers.

>>DWord ssp; /* supervisor stack pointer */

>>Word sr; /* status register */

That's a pitty for since I don't know asm....

I'm aware of that.

Thanks for your answer. It seams that I have to learn asm.... :)
