I hope that the compliance is a planned feature.. Maybe once Llama is
finished, a port can be done and be as popular as pMARS... (I've been to
www.koth.org too many times since I learned the URL, I guess. :)

I just finished support for labels today. I'll post a copy when I test it
some more..



Rod, support for SPL would be nice, as well as for the CMP function. (CMP
can be used for testing a fence around your program for bombing, as I was
reading in the first article on Core War from Koth.org...)

Any idea when a cleaned up version will be released? (Along with support for
a parser like mine or Buddy's.)
