Missing instruction: VLREP

[JamesWekel]

I am getting the following error trying to use the VLREP instruction.

00001176  E310 5010 0014                00000010   565+         LGF   R1,V2ADDR         load source address
                                                   566+         VLREP V22,0(0,R1),0     test instruction
          ** [566] macro definition for VLREP not found in MACLIB path as either VLREP.mac or vlrep.mac
0000117C  E760 5028 080E                00001158   567+         VST   V22,V1O2          save v1 output

Take care,

FYI:

While the raw VLREP mnemonic doesn't appear to be supported (Why, I don't know! Harold? Simple oversight?), fortunately however, all of the extended mnemonics(*) do appear to be supported:

Fish, I changed my test from VLREP to use the extended mnemonics.

I greatly appreciate the support.

I greatly appreciate the support.

You're very welcome, Jim!  We're all here to help each other.  :)

I like the word "oversight". Also known as a screw up. No idea why the base instruction is not defined.
