### .8086 (Select 8086 Processor Instruction Set)

The .8086 directive tells the assembler to recognize and assemble 8086 instructions. This directive assembles only 8086 and 8088 instructions (the 8088 instructions are identical to the 8086 instructions). ALP assembles 8086 instructions by default.

Syntax

    . 8086

Remarks

The .8086 directive does not have an operand.

Note: The .8086 directive does not end ALP 8087/80287 mode.
