Doug, >significant rewrite of the syntax for prototypes….." Lesse, let's replace the '__asm' with '__asmlibrary <librarybasename> offset' and let's further make the offsets positive, and start with 0 and count by one, instead of this silly hexadecimal and count by 6 stuff. The argument against changing the prototypes bacuse they wouldn't work on all compilers won't wash. The pragmas don't work on all compilers. As for the 'option being off or on' I think what Arnie is saying is that there is a lovely (and probably MORE important feature) called prototypes which only do 1/2 the job. The error checking is there, but the code is poor, you _need_ to add both includes.
