oink.

am i reading this correctly: they actually use the cr operand as if
it was a *table*??  moo?

so the instruction field 0-15 is treated as a 4-bit number (a 4-bit
truth-table)

you then take ba and bb and create a 2-bit index.

then use that 2-bit address to get one of the bits of the 4-bit
instruction field.

wooow.

i'm deeply impressed.

um... answer... yes they do implement crand, cror etc :)

this must be how FPGAs do things, and is probably why LUTs are 4-bit.
