Hi Bob, I always wondered if SOMEONE out there preferred the 68k's argument arrangement. I find that the Intel method reminds me of most high-level language's assignment statements (e.g. AL := 5;) While Motorola's reminds me of COBOL (which produces subliminal feelings of dislike). Ah well, I should be able to adapt, but It sure seems strange after growing up on Z80, 6502 & 8086 to change arg order now. I work with 8086 at work & 68k at home, which doesn't help… –Wayne
