I think all of the single bytecode commands have side effects, which may
or may not matter to you. You might want to use UnmuteSound().
Another option would be to create a command that does nothing. For
example, a jump to the following command:
__nolist void NOP() { asm { 0x27, 1 }; }
Or assigning var 0 its own value:
__nolist void NOP2() { asm { 0x14, 0, 0, 0, 0 }; }
For both of these cases you need to create the asm functions defined
above and not use higher level syntax since NQC will usually optimize
out statements like x=x;

p.s. I haven't tested either of the above functions on an RCX - I'm
going from memory here. Use at your own risk.
