S0:This is the Status Info file icon. Drag this icon to the directory in which you want to save the file. Or, drag it to the program into which you want to transfer the data.
S1:This shows the filename for the Status Info file, edit it if you want a different name.
S2:Click to save the Status Info text with the current filename. If it is not a full pathname, you must drag the icon to a directory first.

OX:This is the Options window.
O0:When this is on, it will try to shrink the code again, if at a later pass it turns out that a smaller or no auto-expansion is needed for a statement.
O1:When this is on, it will save the object code after assembly.
O2:When this is on, it will run the object file after assembly.
O3:When this is on, it will also assemble the file called 'Header' in the 'Resources' directory. This file can be changed if wanted.
O4:When this is on, the PROCESS window will be opened, if not opened, and put at the top when a file is loaded.
O5:When this is on, the STATUS window will be opened, if not opened, and put at the top when a file is loaded.
O6:When this is on, extASM will give a warning when it auto-expands a statement.
O7:When this is on, and the Auto-expand option is on, only the auto-expansion summary is given, not info about every statement.
O8:When this is on, and the Auto-expand option is on, only information about auto-expanding ADRs and load/store instructions, is given.
O9:When this is on, extASM will give a warning about any variables which is not used by the program.
O10:When this is on, it will display code statistics at the end of the assembly, such as the number used of each instruction, the number of instructions, etc. It also makes it possible to display two pie charts, selectable from the menu.
O11:When this is on, then also code in macros, when they are called, is counted in the code statistics.
O12:When this is on, it will display a list of the variables, optionally sorted, and macros. It will also show the number of references to each variable, and the number of times each macro is used.
O13:When this is on, the variable list will be sorted.
O14:When this is on, labels can be specified without a period in front of them. All other instructions and statements must then be indented by one or more spaces or TABs.
O15:When this is on, extASM will produce an object file in ARM Object Format, which can then be linked with e.g. C. This is not implemented in this version, and it is instead done using the extAOF application.
O16:When this is on, extASM will also use Throwback to display error and warning messages, so any editor which has Throwback can display them.
O17:When this is on, the STATUS window will scroll to the end, when new messages are added.
O18:When this is on, ADR instructions will be minimum 16 bit (i.e. 2 instructions). This can sometimes reduce the number of passes, at the expense of more NOPs.
O19:Click to close the window.
O20:Click to save the current setting.
