With a better ChangeLog, this is OK. I'm a bit amazed how the m68k stuff for handling the different syntaxes ended up in the "matching operands" section. Egad. You might consider noting that as an example of how those characters are useful. One of the things about our manual that is kind of lame is the number of examples that come from obsolete/dead architectures. But I'm not going to ask you to change that. Jeff
