> This sub-forum is dedicated to the development of UASM which is written in C so you shouldn't be all that surprised if C code is frequently posted here as part of this development.
On the user end, few would care if the assembler was cobbled together in FORTRAN but it does not mean that the user of the assembler needs to write their assembler code using standard FORTRAN notation and/or assumptions.
Note that I mention FORTRAN in upper case as green monochrome screen were truly terrible things to use that sent the users blind and mad and had to enter their data (after punch cards) in upper case so they could actually see what they were doing. This was a generation that grew up scrawling nonsense in flow charts and sending the instructions up to the girls in the punch card room.
