I doubt it very much. actually, having seen an example of mister rubin's, i think that a super assembler really would allow him to generate code just as fast as any high level language. that doesn't mean that the high level language is deficient. it only points out the deficiency in mister rubin's programming skills. if _was_ kind of him to point this our for us. -- Offer void except where prohibited by law.
