    I'm about to go out of my mind here.  I have a rather large program
written in Modula-2, in which I suddenly find a need to have the ability to
Get/Set a 68030 or 68020's cache control register (CACR).  In assembly, no
problem...in Modula-2..big problem.  Using Benchmark Modula-2 there is a
utility for converting asm load files to M2 OBM files (for use as the
Implementation portion of a library module)..BUT, I am beginning to think that
this particular path isn't going to work for me (nothing's going my way with
this...).  You can also use INLINE or CODE procedures, which are basically
inline lists of machine code (hex op-codes, the whole works...what fun; NO
mnemonics, labels, etc...just the pure machine code...), but these so far have
produced nothing but rather spectacular GURUs (one managed to blank vd0:...and
other bells and whistles).  If ANYONE has ides post them or E-Mail me...
 
regards,
       LaMonte
