Thank you, Chandru; I knew someone would explain it eventually. (I

A long, long time ago, in the days before MIID/SID etc, you could only copy
1 byte with INC r1, MCI r2,r1 (no MII either) so when you decided you'd
copied the item-id to the BMS work area (come to think of it, how would you
know?), the BMS reg was left on the LAST byte of the id. Hence, in the
wisdom of the ancients, the call to RETI which saved you one instruction.

Oh this should've been marked:
"Warning: this thread contains obscure language about Pick Virtual
Assembler; anyone under 40 duck"

And no, didn't mean MCC, INC+MCI === MII; INC+MCC===MCI (or MIC).

Hi
I'm surprised that nobody has mentioned that PVA is one of the best general
purpose glues around. Very reliable and does the job required. :-)
