Can somebody look up the flag register and say which flags are set/reset? I don't like looking at a value the F register may contain; that doesn't mean anything to me. [[User:AndyJ|Andy Janata]] 10:28, 27 March 2006 (PST)

: Agreed.  Additionally, the outputs for a bcall should only reflect the values that are intentionally outputted by the routine, not just incidental outputs (i.e. The entire contents of the F register should not be listed).  A particularly useful, but unintentional, output value can also be listed if it seems rather certain that it will not change between OS revisions.  Things that don't fit into those categories can be listed in the notes section instead of the output section.  Additionally additionally, if the bcall's destroyed list is unknown, the unknown template should be used.  And last but not least, Premchai21, don't take these comments the wrong way.  We definitely appreciate your help on the wiki! --[[User:Dan Englender|Dan Englender]] 12:36, 27 March 2006 (PST)

Can somebody look up the flag register and say which flags are set/reset? I don't like looking at a value the F register may contain; that doesn't mean anything to me. Andy Janata 10:28, 27 March 2006 (PST)

Agreed. Additionally, the outputs for a bcall should only reflect the values that are intentionally outputted by the routine, not just incidental outputs (i.e. The entire contents of the F register should not be listed). A particularly useful, but unintentional, output value can also be listed if it seems rather certain that it will not change between OS revisions. Things that don't fit into those categories can be listed in the notes section instead of the output section. Additionally additionally, if the bcall's destroyed list is unknown, the unknown template should be used. And last but not least, Premchai21, don't take these comments the wrong way.
