<continuation> We should both acknowledge that this is a side issue seperate from assembler design. On THAT point, I acknowledge that I'd feel uncomfortable about an assembler doing ANYTHING to my code that I don't know about. Compilers, okay; assemblers, no. Give me a switch so I can enable/disable branch optimization and the like or don't give it to me at all. (I've coded all my 68000 code using explicit .B/.W./.L extenders on EVERYTHING. I aways assumed it was being left alone. Now I begin to wonder. Maybe I've just been lucky?) Rick
