Q: Should Op names be allowed to be identifiers.

2007-03-09 Thread Klaas-Jan Stol
hi, In PIR, it's allowed to use ops as names for variables. For instance, it's allowed to write: .sub main .local pmc inc .end However, when trying to increment your variable 'inc', you could write .sub main .local pmc inc inc inc .end which not only looks strange, but will not even
