@AmenZwa@mathstodon.xyz DEC (and Unix) syntax or MIT syntax? I didn't know there was more than one at the time, but later when 68000 came up, there were two again with opposite operand ordering, Motorola versus AT&T.

    @dougmerritt@mathstodon.xyz I only knew the canonical DEC syntax, given the circumstances (which you are already aware). I think the 8086 and the 6502 had similar assembler vendor dependent local variations. Ah, fun, frustrating times….
