vasm fsincos

Hi,

I'm trying to assemble the line "fsincos.s (a0)+,fp0,fp1" and I get the error "illegal operand types". Asm-one assembles this without woes (and it works). Does anybody know how to get vasm to compile this statement?

Cheers
Dalton

This works on my Windows build of VASM:
fsincos.s (a0)+,fp0:fp1

Verified on a 68060 using vasm and PhxAss. I disassembled the instruction in ADis and it used your format also. This format is not given in the M68000PRM but it wouldn't be the first error in this manual. This appears to be the correct format and makes more sense for the 68k.

Ah! Like the syntax of a two-destination div.

Thanks!

In fact the M68000PRM shows the syntax with ",". But probably I chose to ignore that, because all other assemblers and disassemblers which I knew used the ":" syntax. And it also makes more sense. Two destination registers are always written with a colon in the M68k family.

Just tried Devpac, which is a good reference, and it uses the colon as well.
