    ST8 REGISTER SET

    The following is a list of the ST8 registers used by ASST8:

            a       -       8-bit accumulator
            xl,yl   -       LSB of index registers
            xh,yh   -       MSB of index registers
            x,y     -       16-Bit index registers
            sp      -       16-bit stack pointer
            cc      -       8-bit condition code register

    ST8 INSTRUCTION SET

         The following list specifies the format for each addressing
    mode supported by ASST8:

    The  terms data, saddr, laddr, eaddr, addr, sofst, lofst, eofst,
    ofst, and label may all be expressions.

         Note that not all addressing modes are valid with every in-
    struction, refer to the ST8 technical data for valid modes.
    The  following  tables  list all ST8 mnemonics recognized by the
    ASST8 assembler.  The designation [] refers to  a  required  ad-
    dressing mode argument.
