I can certainly agree with you on that... the glaucoma in my left eye has 
become so bad that it requires my right eye to see :)

As far as this discussion goes, I am grateful for your work on cc65 even if 
the assembler is not what some peoplekind want. I certainly had great fun 
writing in C with cc65! As a C cross-compiler goes, The performance of the 
code cc65 produces certainly exceeds my expectations especially when 
compared to classic MS-DOS based C cross-compilers for the Apple IIe like my 
old favourite Aztec C65.

One thing that I hope we can all agree on is that programs cobbled-together 
in unstructured AppleSoft BASUC suck when compared to the readability and 
performance of those written in the modern cc65 cross-compiled working 
environment, which is of course largely made possible by the ca65 assembler 
that comes with the cc65 toolchain which is not merely a replacement for 
some old native assembler.

As you also know I am also grateful for the inline assembly supported by 
cc65 as well. And then of course there is the support for overlays that you 
know I enjoy...

But anyway, both you and Michael Pohereski have contributed greatly to my 
enjoyment of the Apple II which of course includes the AppleWin emulator and 
I know that you are both passionate about your work so lively discussions 
like this are to be expected :)

Again thanks Oliver.

Thanks also to Michael for being focused as usual.

Bill
