The font layout in the old listing seemed better to me, as it showed how 
the numbers were calculated.

I did a diff, but more context would be of interest.

Also, it looks like line 968  (#65) and 990 (#35) are constants that can 
be put at the top of the file, as are 889/903 time delay amounts (in the 
-03 ROM).

line 835/837 is interesting.  Wonder what is going on there.
lin 427 says unused, but the same line is in the -01 ROM.  Is it unused 
in both?
Was the lack of storing cmd_x to >512 just an optimization?  How do they 
know it is 0 already?
Line 283 (#67) looks like another constant.
