Hi there,

thank you for your great work on the best assembler available! :)

Perhaps the following problem is interesting to you:
yasm (even the latest snapshot) stops on
  times 01FEh-($-$$) db 0
if the current position is beyond 510 (nasm produced an error in this case,
yasm writes megabytes of zeros).

I tried to use
  %if ($-$$) > 510
    %error code size exceeded
  %endif
but yasm says "$ not supported". Is there a workaround?

Thanks again, regards
Stefan
