Re: To NOP, or not to NOP...

[Roger Heflin <rah@horizon.hit.net>]

Zeros are bad.  Noop is a different instruction.  0 is a odd
instruction that will cause the computer to reset (been there, done
that).

I would use the Noop, though I have never put less code in place that
what GM originally had.  I usually put a jump to someplace, the new
code, and then a jump back to resume the GM code.  Though I usually
have to put 1-2 instructions that GM originally wrote in the jmp that
was misplaced by the jump instruction.
