COOL. F.K. (used to care about FPC for DOS, but it's 10 years ago :-( ) changed the priority to "urgent" :-|

Occasion to test BTTR's UNRAR - passed :lol3:

> Can you tell me whether stability increased or not?
OK, tested:

- No regressions found
- JPG seems to work (I don't have many of them :lol3: )
- PNG decoder is buggy (bug probably not new, and suspiciously similar to Arachne's PNG decoder bug - messes up low-color palletized PNG's)
- My evil 15 MiB text loads
- S&R securely crashes, even on small texts (as always before)
- Compilation date is wrong (don't you pick it from the clock ?)
- Memory leak/alloc bug not yet verified (too much RAM and too little time so far)

IIRC 8080 was the last CPU with this feature :lol3:

> "PUSH 8" would be either "6A 08" (push 0008)
Operand occupies 8 but it still pushes 32 bits :lol3:

> or "66 6A 08" (push 00000008) in e.g. 16-bit mode.
Maybe ... or "68 08 00 00 00" :-P
