Sure, it was just based on the original opcode map. Maybe, we can have something special expressions for that. e.g. 0f: ESC # 2-byte escape > Also, something like > + extra_info > would be easier to parse (using, say, awk) than > (extra_info) Hmm, maybe, parser can handle "(extra_info)" as a solid keyword. so let's define actual format. <opcode maps> Table: table-name Referrer: escamed-name opcode: mnemonic|Grp [operand1[,operand2...]] [(extra1)[,(extra2)...] [| 2nd-mnemonic ...] opcode: ESC # escaped-name <group maps> reg: mnemonic ...
