+** Instruction Formats
+All instructions are encoded left to right with the first byte being the lowest address.
+This ordering was selected simply because makes the starting IP address 0 and is the obvious ordering for those with left to right written langauges.

+** Exotic behavior
+*** compare and skip instructions
+All compare and skip instructions lookup the first byte following themselves to determine the number of bytes to skip to allow the correct behavior to occur with shorter and longer instruction formats.
+To ensure consistent behavior, all undefined opcodes are to be treated like illegal instructions and for hardware/operating system combinations that lack an illegal instruction handler, the result is that of HALT.
+Assemblers should throw an exception in the event that a register is compared to itself as jumps and nops are the preferred alternative in such cases and their encoding could be repurposed in the event of opcode starvation.

+
+*** HALCODE
+On systems that support an IOMMU and Kernel mode, all HALCODES can be modified or replaced by the kernel. Those listed in this document are those that must be supported on bootup.
+Systems supporting more HALCODES than those listed in this document must implement HALCODE 0x42FFFFFF which must provide a DEVICE LIST and HALCODE 0x42000000 which must provide a HALCODE LIST
