   <p>Instructions consist of a leading opcode or macro name followed by
 | 
						|
whitespace and an optional comma-separated list of operands:
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
<pre class="smallexample">     <var>opcode</var> [<var>operand</var>, ...]
 | 
						|
</pre>
 | 
						|
   <p>Instructions must be separated by a newline or semicolon.
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
   <p>FLIX instructions, which bundle multiple opcodes together in a single
 | 
						|
instruction, are specified by enclosing the bundled opcodes inside
 | 
						|
braces:
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
<pre class="smallexample">     {
 | 
						|
     [<var>format</var>]
 | 
						|
     <var>opcode0</var> [<var>operands</var>]
 | 
						|
     <var>opcode1</var> [<var>operands</var>]
 | 
						|
     <var>opcode2</var> [<var>operands</var>]
 | 
						|
     ...
 | 
						|
     }
 | 
						|
</pre>
 | 
						|
   <p>The opcodes in a FLIX instruction are listed in the same order as the
 | 
						|
corresponding instruction slots in the TIE format declaration. 
 | 
						|
Directives and labels are not allowed inside the braces of a FLIX
 | 
						|
instruction.  A particular TIE format name can optionally be specified
 | 
						|
immediately after the opening brace, but this is usually unnecessary. 
 | 
						|
The assembler will automatically search for a format that can encode the
 | 
						|
specified opcodes, so the format name need only be specified in rare
 | 
						|
cases where there is more than one applicable format and where it
 | 
						|
matters which of those formats is used.  A FLIX instruction can also be
 | 
						|
specified on a single line by separating the opcodes with semicolons:
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
<pre class="smallexample">     { [<var>format</var>;] <var>opcode0</var> [<var>operands</var>]; <var>opcode1</var> [<var>operands</var>]; <var>opcode2</var> [<var>operands</var>]; ... }
 | 
						|
</pre>
 | 
						|
   <p>If an opcode can only be encoded in a FLIX instruction but is not
 | 
						|
specified as part of a FLIX bundle, the assembler will choose the
 | 
						|
smallest format where the opcode can be encoded and
 | 
						|
will fill unused instruction slots with no-ops.
