Dave,
I'm one of those who do look at the listings. I am somewhat torn between the
old and the new mnemonics. I like yours better, but I think it would
probably be better to go with our new "standard" from Lego. Of course Lego
has only given us the Scout commands. You still get to keep yours for the
RCX only commands. :-)

I have started looking at adding Scout support to NQC, and in the process
I am questioning whether or not to change the mnemonics used in the
disassembly listings (the -l option for nqc).  Currently, I use a set
mnemonics that I made up when writing NQC.  Now, however, we have a list
of "official" mnemonics from Lego (as part of the Scout SDK).  Should I
keep the old mnemonics or use the new ones?

For example, here are some of the old ones:

000 Set        var[0], 0             14 00 02 00 00
005 OutPwr     ABC, 7                13 07 02 07
009 OutDir     ABC, Fwd              e1 87

According to the lego mnemonics, this would be

000 setv       var[0], 0             14 00 02 00 00
005 pwr        ABC, 7                13 07 02 07
009 dir        ABC, Fwd              e1 87

Anyone have any strong feelings here?  I suspect only a few people look at
the listings anyway, but they are probably used to the old names.
However, using the new names would provide more commonality with the Scout
SDK.  I really don't want to support both (too much feature creep already
in NQC).

I second this. I look at the listing a lot; esp. when optimizing. But actually would feel quite happy with the newer format. Of course it would be nice to just have a flag; and quite cheap./ creature feep. Dw (...) (25 years ago, 4-Dec-99, to lugnet.robotics.rcx.nqc)
