Column 10, shirley?

This looks awfully like S/360 assembler, and as I recall it (and
this is several years ago) labels were up to 8 chars, a blank, and
then the opcode.  Columns 1, 10, 16, 40, 72 for label, opcode,
operand, comment, and continuation char respectively..

I still code assembler this way to this day, eg...

fgcyes:  mov   ah,2                    ; f=GetChar
mov   dx,_port                ; port
int   014h                    ; returns char in al


You might like to look at the hercules-390 list here on yahoo, which
is full of nutters running mainframe emulators on their PCs...
