Hi Eddy,

Replying to a message of Eddy Thilleman to All:

ET> function NextPos( var str1, str2: string; var start: byte ): boolean;
ET> assembler;   { search next occurrence of str1 in str2 }

ET> Should I replace the instruction 'LES DI, START' by 'MOV EDI, START'
ET> or by 'LEA EDI, START'?

I see Tom has answered your initial query about assembler instructions.

You might care to look in the Speedsoft run-time library (assuming you are
using SpeedPascal/2 or Sibyl) for some function that already does this. Take a
look at StrPos() and StrScan(), especially the first one. If you can exploit
one of these it will save you a lot of redevelopment work.
