A special register called the Instruction Pointer (IP) provides hardware support for threaded-code
languages. It consists of register-pair R218-R219 and contains memory addresses. The MSB is R218.
Threaded-code languages deal with an imaginary higher-level machine within the existing hardware
machine. The IP acts like the PC for that machine. The command NEXT passes control to or from the
hardware machine to the imaginary machine. And the commands ENTER and EXIT are imaginary
machine equivalents of real machine CALLS and RETURNS.
If the commands NEXT, ENTER and EXIT are not used, the IP can be used by the fast interrupt
processing, as described in the interrupts section.
