Fix bug in like terms collection in expression simplification Like term collection would lose the actual "variable" part of the term if the second term collected happened to have no coefficient. This would cause the expression to take the value of the calculated coefficient which is obviously wrong. Thanks to hider <stego@satx.rr.com> for reporting the bug and providing a proper test case. Observation: this bug has been present since the first pre-release of lwtools 3.0 when the algebraic expression system was introduced. Apparently people tend not to create expressions that trigger the like terms handler. The specific conditions require the symbol to be undefined and the second operand to the addition has to have no coefficient so it's likely a fairly rare scenario. Still, it is somewhat surprising that nobody tripped on it before now.

>&#13;The following options for displaying cycle counts in listings are provided.
These options are enabled from pragmas on the command line or in the
assembly files themselves.  For compatibility with other assemblers you can
use the "OPT" keyword in addition to "PRAGMA."</P
><PRE
CLASS="PROGRAMLISTING"
>opt c  - enable cycle counts: [8]
opt cd - enable detailed cycle counts breaking down addressing modes: [5+3]
opt ct - show a running subtotal of cycles
opt cc - clear the running subtotal</PRE
><P
>&#13;The assembler supports both 6809 as well as native-mode 6309 cycle counts.
In 6309 mode the counts are displayed in parenthesis instead of brackets. 
In addition, some operations have a variable cycle count.  In this case a
"+?" is displayed to alert the reader.  Sample output is shown below.</P
