JWasm 2.x changed the opcode for "cmp sp" to the shorter one, and that broke it. So I had to barely modify the makefile. I did that in December, but it wasn't important enough to release a new version. (I doubt Japheth cares, and he's the only reason I tested JWasm on the "old" source anyways.)

Anyways, I fixed a bug (wouldn't ignore uppercase chars, which now apparently makes befunge[3x].bf work correctly) while still keeping it 1024 bytes. I also improved the examples a bit, reran the benchmark on a few machines (BEFI vs. original C-based BEF), so now I've uploaded a new version.

No huge plans for the future, but I will make some more minor tweaks. (I admit my version number scheme sucks, but whatever.)

EDIT: Proper FASM thread for this project is here.
