Thanks,

I looked at that but decided to download the PDF file.  It's about 
900k and includes the same information and has the alpha listing.  It 
doesn't really explain them but it is more of what I was looking for.

It looks like the MacOS X assembler will do 'i386' instructions.

Thanks,

I'll take a longer look, it looks promising.  Some of the other 
information looks useful.  Maybe not with FB^3 but useful nonetheless.

Thanks,

I gave Fantasm a try some years ago, I'll have to take a look.  It's 
probably been updated since then.  I liked Fantasm, it was a cool 
design.

Now if I can just get the time to sit down and really learn FutureBasic.
