A
6502 instruction that jumps to (sets the program counter to point
at) an instruction stream at a given address.
Warning about indirect JMP
Because there is no carry associated with retrieving the most
significant byte of the address that a JMP (a) points to, the (a)
form should NEVER have a low-order byte of $FF. For example,
jmp ($89ff)
will fetch the program counter from $89ff and $8900, instead of $89ff
and $8a00 as expected. All other
6502 indirect addressing modes have the same
"feature."
