Thanks to everyone who responded to my previous posts.

  I have two more questions:
   A: is there a good way to find the value of a variable in FSDB?  I can specify 
its address and get a number in hex.  but this is a pain.  Especially if I am 
dealing with doubles.
	Either that or I can wait for it to appear on the npx window. (doesn't always
work)

   B:  Whats going on inside my math co-processor?  I noticed in FSDB that things go in
and out and sometimes sit inside of it.  I asume that it must have it's own 
registers.
	Can these registers be using in a meaningful way by a shrewd programmer
using ASM?  In my program I am using a lot of doubles, and I want to speed up
my user-friendly but performance-nasty C++ vector library.  Can you move a double
from one place to another using the 64 bit registers in the math co-processsor?

  Wow, since I've gotten a copy of FSB I've learned about asm _and_ my math 
co-processor.  Although it's not friendly compared to TC++'s built in "debugger"
it does have uses.
