Not sure what you are referring to. I was talking about the compiler producing code for a machine where you can manipulate the stack point and access offsets into the stack by a small amount. I think the renaming of registers would not be hard *if* they were always renamed in a stack like manner, R1>R2, R2>R3, etc. That's just an offset and an adder on the register reference. -- Rick C
