Greets all;
I've read through the moto programmers manual for the 6809 for the cmp
functions, and am still confused. The cmp function is a subtract function
where the answer is thrown away, only affecting the CC flags so that a
following beq or blo will take the correct jump. But somehow, it isn't clear
which is subtracted from what.
Given that regs.x contains $02FA, and that the integer memory location
referenced by LblName contains $000A, will the blo take, or be ignored here?
cmpx <LblName memory address in DP that holds the $000A above
blo somewhere else
Thanks.
