Yes, but per
my earlier example.... are we shooting for less instructions in
the program or less intructions executed in total for the program? (ie, your
23 byte example is calling dos system services, so.... lots of additional
instructions there).
Well, this all started when Iggy said there wasn't a PRINT language
element in Assembly, so I suppose it's the easiest way to get something
printed, which means using built in system support.
Fine then -- Commodores can just STA directly to screen memory (exercise
left for the reader). :-)
