It doesn't seem to like "clr.l (a6)+" for some reason.

moveq also not supported: http://68k.hax.com/MOVEQ

Good idea, however this is very disappointing. On Amiga, I used moveq extremely often to clear stuff.

Hey, I'm the developer, I noticed some activity on GitHub so I wanted to find out where it was coming from, the interpreter itself is for learning, I haven't added the quick instructions as they weren't really useful speed wise, but I'll add them anyway just for allowing the syntax, if anyone finds issues, let me know on GitHub, the app is still in beta

they are THE FASTEST way to clear a full 32 bit reg, for example, by far.

Yes I mean in the context of the interpreter, in the end both quick and not quick instructions end up running the same code in the interpreter, but I'll add it anyway
SUBQ also seems to be missing.

Interesting project and it may be a useful tool for learning M68K assembler for a beginner, but as an editor or simulator it seems very limited at the moment. Always nice to see some new M68K tools though
