A uProcessor geek, but not 8085 :(

However, Wikipedia mentions:

" Undocumented instructions

A number of undocumented instructions and flags were discovered by two
software engineers, Wolfgang Dehnhardt and Villy M. Sorensen in the process
of developing an 8085 assembler. These instructions use 16-bit operands and
include indirect loading and storing of a word, a subtraction, a shift, a
rotate, and offset operations.[7]

8085 op codes enhance programming". Electronics. McGraw-Hill: 144–145. ISSN
