And I have to agree. The make.pl project is something that I simply used to let my subconscious worry about the issues surrounding the assembler. I'm going to try to have the assembler done over the weekend, with at the least hooks for a macro system so that people can work on pieces of that. Since XS issues were stopping me, I'll come at it from the front end and get the parsing details worked out first, worrying about the actual code generation at the end. -- Jeff <[EMAIL PROTECTED]>
