No, it was meant as an general statement concerning the use of GOTO's
in C or asm ( thread started out as c-only but has since grown ).

This does not need to be the case, there are no excuses for writing
poorly written/documented code in C, Pascal, asm or whatever.
Ofcource asm, as it is 'lower' level, IS harder to understand/follow
particulary to thoose who do not practice it regulary. And
have you ever amused yourself by looking at the generated output from
an PIC c-compiler :-).
The mentioned example is ( except it's fairly well documented ) as
far as one could take this 'technique' i.e. at one extreme.

Maybe the reason could be that I'm comming from C/C++ and THEN started
with =

pic asm affect my personal way of writing programs, structured, well
defined interfaces/functions, alot of comments, etc. I'm not sure =

I havent seen any other 'commercial grade' pic software, so I cannot
jugde.

May I ask what is CS101 ( sorry I'm not native english so sometimes
need time to catch up :) ) ComputerStudy101 ? ( and yes I know it's some
kind of joke )
