It was figured out long ago pal, the fact of the
matter is and that I pointed out numbskull is that he
should automate getting of the stack pointer like all
of the other one's do.  It's a default value hardcoded
in..let it go.

You and your gay lover can continue looking at kiddie
porn now.

No, hardcoded would be if you removed this line of
code:

                case 'a':     addr = strtol(optarg, 0, 16); break;

What he's got is called a *default value*.

If you can't tell which is which, it might be a good
idea to not bring it
up any further.  If you're going to try to insult
somebody by accusing them
of something (like "hardcoding"), you could either
do the world a favor and
make sure you understand the meaning of the
accusation, or be *creative*:

the entry about Florida's
Senator George Smathers about half-way down).

(Hints for the unclued:  Try getting your code to
run with a different value
than '1700' without either recompiling or using a
hex editor.  Then get his code
to run with a different value using '-a'.  Then read
this:

and let us know when you've figured it out....)
