Re: [9fans] bug in asm.ps

Ok, but what I meant is that the automatics are upside down growing from n
to 0 as the memory grows. Of course if you call any functions, the SP points
to the last space left for their arguments. As far as I understand if you dont
call any functions, 0(SP) is the last automatic. If you dont have any
automatics, SP points to the return PC. If you call any functions there is space
for their args (probably for the args of the functions with the
biggest number of args) and SP is pointing to the last space which
will be the first arg, because
they gro from 0 to n as the memory grows.
