-<p>Affects Flags: N V Z </p><pre>MODE SYNTAX HEX LEN TIM
-Zero Page BIT $44 $24 2 3
-Absolute BIT $4400 $2C 3 4
-
-</pre>BIT sets the Z flag as though the value in the address tested were ANDed
-with the accumulator. The N and V flags are set to match bits 7 and 6
-respectively in the value stored at the tested address.
-<p>BIT is often used to skip one or two following bytes as in:
-</p><p></p><pre>CLOSE1 LDX #$10 If entered here, we
- .BYTE $2C effectively perform
-CLOSE2 LDX #$20 a BIT test on $20A2,
- .BYTE $2C another one on $30A2,
-CLOSE3 LDX #$30 and end up with the X
-CLOSEX LDA #12 register still at $10
- STA ICCOM,X upon arrival here.
-
-</pre>
-Beware: a BIT instruction used in this way as a NOP does have effects: the flags
-may be modified, and the read of the absolute address, if it happens to access an
-I/O device, may cause an unwanted action.

-</p><h2>Branch Instructions</h2>
-<p>Affect Flags: none
-</p><p>All branches are relative mode and have a length of two bytes. Syntax is "Bxx
-Displacement" or (better) "Bxx Label". See the notes on the <a href="#PC">Program Counter</a> for more on
-displacements.
-</p><p>Branches are dependant on the status of the flag bits when the op code is
-encountered. A branch not taken requires two machine cycles. Add one if the
-branch is taken and add one more if the branch crosses a page boundary. </p><pre>MNEMONIC HEX

-BMI (Branch on MInus) $30
-BVC (Branch on oVerflow Clear) $50
-BVS (Branch on oVerflow Set) $70
-BCC (Branch on Carry Clear) $90
-BCS (Branch on Carry Set) $B0
-BNE (Branch on Not Equal) $D0
-BEQ (Branch on EQual) $F0
-
-</pre>There is no BRA (BRanch Always) instruction but it can be easily emulated
-by branching on the basis of a known condition. One of the best flags to use for
-this purpose is the <a href="#VFLAG">oVerflow</a> which is unchanged
-by all but addition and subtraction operations.
-<p>
-A page boundary crossing occurs when the branch destination is on a different
-page than the instruction AFTER the branch instruction. For example:
-</p><pre> SEC
- BCS LABEL
- NOP
-</pre>
-A page boundary crossing occurs (i.e. the BCS takes 4 cycles) when (the
-address of) LABEL and the NOP are on different pages. This means that
-<pre> CLV
- BVC LABEL
- LABEL NOP
-</pre>
-the BVC instruction will take 3 cycles no matter what address it is located
-at.

-
-</pre>BRK causes a non-maskable interrupt and increments the program counter by
-one. Therefore an <a href="#RTI">RTI</a> will
-go to the address of the BRK +2 so that BRK may be used to replace a
-two-byte instruction for debugging and the subsequent RTI will be correct.

-
-+ add 1 cycle if page boundary crossed
-
-</pre>Compare sets flags as if a subtraction had been carried out. If the value
-in the accumulator is equal or greater than the compared value, the Carry will
-be set. The equal (Z) and negative (N) flags will be set based on equality or lack
-thereof and the sign (i.e. A&gt;=$80) of the accumulator.

-CLI (CLear Interrupt) $58
-SEI (SEt Interrupt) $78
-CLV (CLear oVerflow) $B8
-CLD (CLear Decimal) $D8
-SED (SEt Decimal) $F8
-
-</pre>Notes:
-<p><a name="IFLAG">&nbsp;</a> The Interrupt flag is used to prevent (SEI) or
-enable (CLI) maskable interrupts (aka IRQ's). It does not signal the presence or
-absence of an interrupt condition. The 6502 will set this flag automatically in
-response to an interrupt and restore it to its prior status on completion of the
-interrupt service routine. If you want your interrupt service routine to permit
-other maskable interrupts, you must clear the I flag in your code.
-</p><p><a name="DFLAG">&nbsp;</a> The Decimal flag controls how the 6502 adds and
-subtracts. If set, arithmetic is carried out in packed binary coded decimal.
-This flag is unchanged by interrupts and is unknown on power-up. The implication
-is that a CLD should be included in boot or interrupt coding.
-</p><p><a name="VFLAG">&nbsp;</a> The Overflow flag is generally misunderstood and
-therefore under-utilised. After an ADC or SBC instruction, the overflow flag
-will be set if the twos complement result is less than -128 or greater than
-+127, and it will cleared otherwise. In twos complement, $80 through $FF
-represents -128 through -1, and $00 through $7F represents 0 through +127.
-Thus, after:
-</p><pre> CLC
- LDA #$7F ; +127
- ADC #$01 ; + +1
-</pre>
-the overflow flag is 1 (+127 + +1 = +128), and after:
-<pre> CLC
- LDA #$81 ; -127
- ADC #$FF ; + -1
-</pre>
-the overflow flag is 0 (-127 + -1 = -128). The overflow flag is not
-affected by increments, decrements, shifts and logical operations i.e. only
-ADC, BIT, CLV, PLP, RTI and SBC affect it. There is no op code to set the
-overflow but a BIT test on an RTS instruction will do the trick.

-
-</pre>JMP transfers program execution to the following address (absolute) or to
-the location contained in the following address (indirect). Note that there is
-no carry associated with the indirect jump so: <pre><strong>AN INDIRECT JUMP MUST NEVER USE A
-VECTOR BEGINNING ON THE LAST BYTE
-OF A PAGE</strong>
-</pre>For example if address $3000 contains $40, $30FF contains $80, and $3100
-contains $50, the result of JMP ($30FF) will be a transfer of control to $4080
-rather than $5080 as you intended i.e. the 6502 took the low byte of the address
-from $30FF and the high byte from $3000.

-<p>
-</p><p>
-</p><p><a name="WRAP">&nbsp;</a>
-</p><h2>Wrap-Around</h2>
-<p>Use caution with indexed zero page operations as they are subject to
-wrap-around. For example, if the X register holds $FF and you execute LDA $80,X
-you will not access $017F as you might expect; instead you access $7F i.e.
-$80-1. This characteristic can be used to advantage but make sure your code is
-well commented.
-</p><p>
-It is possible, however, to access $017F when X = $FF by using the Absolute,X
-addressing mode of LDA $80,X. That is, instead of:
-</p><pre> LDA $80,X ; ZeroPage,X - the resulting object code is: B5 80
-</pre>
-which accesses $007F when X=$FF, use:
-<pre> LDA $0080,X ; Absolute,X - the resulting object code is: BD 80 00
-</pre>
-which accesses $017F when X = $FF (a at cost of one additional byte and one
-additional cycle). All of the ZeroPage,X and ZeroPage,Y instructions except
-STX ZeroPage,Y and STY ZeroPage,X have a corresponding Absolute,X and
-Absolute,Y instruction. Unfortunately, a lot of 6502 assemblers don't have an
-easy way to force Absolute addressing, i.e. most will assemble a LDA $0080,X
-as B5 80. One way to overcome this is to insert the bytes using the .BYTE
-pseudo-op (on some 6502 assemblers this pseudo-op is called DB or DFB,
-consult the assembler documentation) as follows:
-<pre> .BYTE $BD,$80,$00 ; LDA $0080,X (absolute,X addressing mode)
-</pre>
-The comment is optional, but highly recommended for clarity.
-<p>In cases where you are writing code that will be relocated you must consider
-wrap-around when assigning dummy values for addresses that will be adjusted.
-Both zero and the semi-standard $FFFF should be avoided for dummy labels. The
-use of zero or zero page values will result in assembled code with zero page
-opcodes when you wanted absolute codes. With $FFFF, the problem is in
-addresses+1 as you wrap around to page 0.
-</p><p><a name="PC">&nbsp;</a>
-</p><h2>Program Counter</h2>
-<p>When the 6502 is ready for the next instruction it increments the program
-counter before fetching the instruction. Once it has the op code, it increments
-the program counter by the length of the operand, if any. This must be accounted
-for when calculating branches or when pushing bytes to create a false return
-address (i.e. jump table addresses are made up of addresses-1 when it is
-intended to use an RTS rather than a JMP).
-</p><p>The program counter is loaded least signifigant byte first. Therefore the
-most signifigant byte must be pushed first when creating a false return address.
-
-</p><p>When calculating branches a forward branch of 6 skips the following 6 bytes
-so, effectively the program counter points to the address that is 8 bytes beyond
-the address of the branch opcode; and a backward branch of $FA (256-6) goes to
-an address 4 bytes before the branch instruction.
-</p><p><a name="TIMES">&nbsp;</a>
-</p><h2>Execution Times</h2>
-<p>Op code execution times are measured in machine cycles; one machine cycle
-equals one clock cycle. Many instructions require one extra cycle for
-execution if a page boundary is crossed; these are indicated by a + following
-the time values shown.
-</p><p>
-</p><p>
-</p><p><a name="NOP">&nbsp;</a>
-</p><h2>NOP (No OPeration) </h2>
-<p>Affects Flags: none </p><pre>MODE SYNTAX HEX LEN TIM
-Implied NOP $EA 1 2
-
-</pre>NOP is used to reserve space for future modifications or effectively REM

-
-</pre>RTS pulls the top two bytes off the stack (low byte first) and transfers
-program control to that address+1. It is used, as expected, to exit a subroutine
-invoked via <a href="#JSR">JSR</a> which
-pushed the address-1.
-<p>RTS is frequently used to implement a jump table where addresses-1 are pushed
-onto the stack and accessed via RTS eg. to access the second of four routines: </p><pre> LDX #1

-+ add 1 cycle if page boundary crossed
-
-</pre>SBC results are dependant on the setting of the decimal flag. In decimal
-mode, subtraction is carried out on the assumption that the values involved are
-packed BCD (Binary Coded Decimal).
-<p>There is no way to subtract without the carry which works as an inverse
-borrow. i.e, to subtract you set the carry before the operation. If the carry is
-cleared by the operation, it indicates a borrow occurred.
