I found an interesting little bug yesterday after I installed DICE on
my system. I compiled my regular torture testing programs with DICE and it
failed. What happened was in one program I was compiling (my own linker
library) das reported about a dozen illegal 68000 commands one of which was a
command for:
move.0 ....
Now, Mr. Dillon, is this a new op-code we haven't heard of yet? :-)

If you can isolate the problem into a small example and email it to me I'd much appreciate it! I expect a second shareware release in a month or less (I hope Tad gets the first release posted to you guys soon!) -Matt -- Matthew Dillon uunet.uu.net!overload!dillon 891 Regal Rd.
