FUNCTION
  This minor mode should be used when you work with assembler sources as it
  provides a few functions that may come in handy.

  When the mode is invoked (with AsmModeInit()), a set of assembler specific
  comment settings are copied to the comment mode and it is enabled. The
  settings are: Asm_comment_start_skip, Asm_comment_start, Asm_comment_end,
  Asm_line_comment_start, Asm_line_comment_body, Asm_line_comment_end,
  Asm_comment_column. You may consult the CommentMode.FPL.ReadMe file for a
  description of the settings (strip the "Asm_" prefix).

  Also an assembler specific tabulator size is available for configuration.
  The value of Asm_tab_size is put in the tab_size setting at invokation.

  If you check the setting "Asm_auto_indent" automatic indention will be
  enabled. Pressing return on a line which only contains indention will
  delete the line.

  Besides the above settings, there are a few functions available:

  Function			Key
  ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
  UsedRegisters()		C-c r

  ---------------------------------------------------------------------------

  UsedRegisters()
  ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
  This function checks the marked block for used registers and prints the
  result in the status line. This is a pure textual search so only directly
  occuring registers will be noticed; EQUR's will not be recognized for what
  they really are, no check of subroutine calls or MACRO contents.
  Register ranges are recognized: "...D0...D1...D2..." and "...D0-D2..." both
  result in the registers D0,D1 and D2 being marked.

HISTORY (REV)
  15.06.95 (0)	First release. Only includes the UsedRegisters function.
  26.07.95 (1)	Added automatic indention.

BUGS
  None known.

TODO
  Plenty!
