RE: What the compiler does, or not?

["Booth Martin" <Booth@xxxxxxxxxxxx>]

  I don't get it.  What's the joke?  The MOVE opcode was defined and
implemented when Hans was in short pant.  How has Hans suddenly become
responsible for MOVE?  I don't get the joke.

Has the MOVE opcode been changed in some way?   MOVE has so many variations
that messing with it would be a real disaster.  

Please don't tell me that MOVE has been changed.  Don't even tell me that
Hans (or anyone) is trying to create MOVE in Free Form.   Gads that would be
awful!!  
 
What is the joke??

This from the man who wants to tell me when and where I can use the MOVE
opcode. And no, I'm not going to debate whether its ironic <grin>.
