Compile labels to short literals where possible #44

Open Twisol opened 12 years ago

This compiles to 7DC1 0002:

SET PC, loop
:loop

However, this compiles to 85C1:

SET PC, 1

They both do the same thing, but the latter uses one less word.

I know. I implemented the labels to always use another word. I've planned on fixing that, but since it doesn't affect functionality, it hasn't been the highest priority.

Okay. I'm just adding things to the issue tracker as they come up.
