  Directive:    TARGET
 
  Function:     Tells the compiler whether it may generate certain
                instructions available only on certain microprocessors.
                Use of these instructions increases the speed and
                slightly reduces the size of the code.
 
  Syntax:
 
     ─┬───┬──TARGET──"processor-id"───────────
        └─/─┘
 
  Parameters:   processor-id         86, 286, or 386-16.
 
  Default:      TARGET "86"
 
  Phase:        Generate
