    I agree that it would probably be a good thing to name all the pin instructions "PINxxx".
    Thanks Chip.

    It wasn't until I started grouping the instructions that I realised that some groups could have nicer names. Hindsight is great isn't it.
    I see you have taken some of the nice P2 instructions that appear to be simple to add - nice!

    You might see elsewhere I asked about SET/GET PTRA/B but since I have realised they are hidden registers, so just ignore that post.

    Also I commented that SETS/SETD/SETCOND/SETINST might be better called MOVS/MOVD/MOVCOND/MOVINST (or MOVI). My reasoning is that they really are MOV type instructions (moving register to register). I wonder if the SET/GET NIB/BYTE might also fall into the same category?
