In pdd03, Chip deprecated the syntax of opcode lists as a whole surrounded by parentheses: (DEPRECATED: The list as a whole may be surrounded by parentheses.) Some more text for context: The common syntax of these opcodes is: <set_opcode> "(flags0, flags1, ..., flagsN)", VAL0, VAL1, ... VALN <get_opcode> "(flags0, flags1, ..., flagsN)", REG0, REG1, ... REGN <get_opcode> "(..., 0x200, flags0, ...)", ..., "name", REG0, ... So, what should the syntax now be? Does the syntax given above fit the deprecated syntax or the correct syntax (it looks like it's deprecated to me, but I'm not an expert in these things)? Anyway, any files containing this syntax need to be changed to the appropriate syntax so that things are up to date.
