LOOP a keyword of ASM?

[va!n]

i am not sure but i think i have never heared before the Keyword LOOP for asm!? (only as label instead). When i try to write following line...

Code: Select all

LOOP = LOOP +1       ; LOOP will automatical highlighted

i get an ASM output error, because LOOP seems to be an ASM keyword? ^^

Sure, it's an x86 opcode

Code: Select all

LOOP - Decrement CX and Loop if CX Not Zero
        Usage:  LOOP    label
        Modifies flags: None
        Decrements CX by 1 and transfers control to "label" if CX is not
        Zero.  The "label" operand must be within -128 or 127 bytes of the
        instruction following the loop instruction
                                 Clocks                 Size
        Operands         808x  286   386   486          Bytes

        label:  jump      18   8+m  11+m    6             2
                no jump    5    4     ?     2

        E2 cb LOOP rel8 Decrement count; jump short if count = 0
