- Thanks for the reply, but I did not completely understand it. I knew, of
- course, that the Z180 and Z280 had expanded instruction sets, and I would
- have guessed that most if not all of the so-called undocumented Z80 opcodes
- would have been used. The question is, do none, some, or all of the
- formerly undocumented codes work on the Z180 and Z280 chips as they do on
- the Z80? If some program authors made use of those undocumented opcodes,
- will their programs no longer work properly?
