Cool. As soon as I arrive home I'll test it


BTW: I briefly looked at the source; it is a kind of black magic for me however I noticed a nice thing in your assembler.
I noticed that it allows to name the labels with non-unique names. I always thought that all labels for jumps must be unique for all ASM file.
But you use label "is_ours:" in more places (althgough in various procedures). Mayve is it a common feature of all assemblers but it is a new information for me
