I am planning to port the legal education CAI I have developed to
an as-yet unidentified 68000 machine running 20-30 ports. Right
now it's on an 11/23 running v7. I make fairly heavy use of nargs(),
which officially doesn't exist in v7 - I borrowed the PDP-11 assembler
code from an old v6 machine.

The nargs() routine returns the number of arguments which its calling
procedure was called with. It's a very handy thing to have - takes about
50 lines in PDP-11 assembler.

I don't know the first thing about Motorola assembler, but I assume
there is such a thing, and that someone out there may have written
nargs() in it. The machine we'll be getting will probably run Unisoft's
UniPlus, or possibly Xenix.

Can anyone help? Thanks.
