   SINCE THIS ASSEMBLER IS FOR THE 8080, WHEN OTHER MORE ADVANCED CPUS BECAME AVAILABLE IT WAS MORE OR LESS FORGOTEN.
   THE 8080 AND THE 8085 USE EXACTLY THE SAME NMONICS.
   THE ONLY DIFFERENCE IS THE 8080 DOES NOT HAVE THE SIM AND RIM NMONICS.
   IF YOU NEED SIM AND RIM USE THE MACRO COMMANDS EQU AND DB (EQUATE AND DEFINE BYTE).
