 ^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
-- nameInAssemblyCode() should search smarter (only labels in column 0? only full words, not part of a larger word?)
-- Fix: don't report as recursion if code assigns address of its own subroutine to something, rather than calling it
 - allow "xxx" * constexpr  (where constexpr is not a number literal, now gives expression error not same type)
-- can we promise a left-to-right function call argument evaluation? without sacrificing performance
+- can we promise a left-to-right function call argument evaluation? without sacrificing performance. note: C/C++ don't guarantee anything about this
 - unify FunctioncallExpression + FunctioncallStatement and PipeExpression + Pipe statement, may require moving Expression/Statement into interfaces instead of abstract base classes
-- for the pipe operator: recognise a placeholder (``?`` or ``%`` or ``_``) in a non-unary function call to allow things as ``4 |> mkword(?, $44) |> print_uw``
+- for the pipe operator: recognise a placeholder (``?`` or ``%`` or ``_``) in a non-unary function call to allow non-unary functions in the chain; ``4 |> mkword(?, $44) |> print_uw``
 - make it possible to use cpu opcodes such as 'nop' as variable names by prefixing all asm vars with something such as ``v_``
   then we can get rid of the instruction lists in the machinedefinitions as well?
 - make it possible to inline non-asmsub routines that just contain a single statement (return, functioncall, assignment)
