Description

Some String/Memory Functions in C/ASM (no comments yet) I may submit some comments to when people ask for it. This code is IMO only usefull for who are coding an emulator and need some extra speed, which this code will probably give. Please note that a lot of the ASM code could still be optimized a bit, but that I leave to you ;)
