But not the 80x86 CPU. It is still the same opcode for a call ($E8).
By now since 36 Years.

What do you mean with drastically?
At the moment there is no unsolved whish to this topic.

Note that it is only added to the table if also the adress is equal.
I am aware of 2 byte opcodes, but I see no obstacle in this.

If there are very unlikely more results then expected it will not be a 
problem. The search through the whole program is mainly for me if adding new 
text snippets or a complete new language.

I will be able to solve most requirements, because I am an experienced 
programmer. On assembler language, too.
