Ted, I cant tell you what it means now but if you drop
into macsbug there a command, I think its DH $xxxx that
will disassemble a single instruction.

DH $A193
DH $225F	
DH $22C8
DH $2280

Do that and you will have a the entire set of instruction.

The only ones that I know are 

_Microseconds	| $A193 
; anything starting with $Axxx is a toolbox trap
MOVEA.L (A7)+,A1  | $225F

We routinely use:

begin RECORD microSecRecord
DIM hi as unsigned long,lo as unsigned long
END RECORD

TOOLBOX Microseconds (LONG) `0xA193,0x225F,0x22C8,0x2280
dim myMS as microSecRecord

in stuff here, and haven't the faintest idea what's going on in the line

TOOLBOX Microseconds (LONG) `0xA193,0x225F,0x22C8,0x2280

It works as bidden, of course, but there is something aesthetically
displeasing about relying on a Mystery, at least in the practical world.

Would anyone care to parse and/or illuminate that line? Perhaps the person
or persons unknown from whom we so shamelessly stole it??
