Because there were various doc's that didn't include it, I didn't assume anything at all, including that it was consistent with the remaining assemblers. I've worked with various assembly language syntax throughout the past 30+ years some of it similar to DEC's and some of it similar to Intel's, with several levels of consistency between these two and beyond. That's why I was asking, previously, about assembler syntax. > >> Somewhere, presumably among the SDCC files I've downloaded over the >> years, I >> found an ASEM51 by W.W.
