I don't think the assembler should do any sort of interpolation with string constants at all. >that's what I'll work on next. When Simon first committed it, I tested newasm and noticed 2-3x speedup on assembly speed. Is this still the case? I've been running some tests with executing Cola on the fly, and the assembly phase (slow) is the big bug in the soup right now, however I've been using the old assembler.
