Re: [Nasm-devel] [RFC 0/2] Early draft for instruction flags generator

[H. P. A. <hp...@zy...>]

I would like to suggest that we pick out the flags that are actually used by the assembler for other than CPU feature determination, like the Sx flags, and move them to a separate word and have the rest indirect.  On the other hand, perhaps that is a pretty useless distinction?

Either way, good work on this!
