- Hello Olaf;
-
- One item I'd like to see improved is the layout used for the protocol
- demo statements. I'm used to seeing a register contents list arranged one
- register per line following the actual C statement prototype or the
- assembler system call syntax.
-
- This also gives you room to define the data as value or pointer. For
- us older asm programmers, that would be very helpful in the visualizations.
- Also, I've been months worth of work in FW making it printable for me, most
- of the text lines were suitable for display on a 40 column screen. We have
- better screens than that, and wider printers. Those registers whose
- contents are genuinely "don't care" can of course be removed from the
- listings to save wasted space.
-
- Cheers Olaf, Gene
