      Looks like an indexed jump table to me... I assume that was the underlying implementation.

          Crap, that's the in-place editor mucking it up when I trimmed the query string off the URL

              That's how I started learning 6502, which was ultimately to lead to my first real job as a Junior Systems Software Engineer, writing control software for Teletext transmission units in Forth and assembler
              I was a Z80 girl myself - actually I was the only girl on the course!

              DJNZ was such a lovely little instruction
              Eeyore was very glad to be able to stop thinking for a little, in order to say "How do you do" in a gloomy manner to Pooh.
              "And how are you?" said Winnie-the-Pooh.
              Eeyore shook his head from side to side. "Not very how," he said. "I don't seem to felt at all how for a long time."

                Goodness knows.

                I never ever used ASSIGNED GOTOs...

                It's even more impenetrable than usual...

                Thank heavens for FORTRAN 77.

                  There's something similar in the PIC instruction set...
