So I know how ROL and ROR works for something like D0 = %00000100, if I ROR #1,D0 then D0 it will now be 00000010.
What I want to do is to rotate through only the a select few digits of that number, so for example if I ROR %00000001 one spot, I want it to be 00000100 instead of 10000000, so it only rotates through the last 3 bits of that number. Is there any way to do something like this where I set the bounds of the rotation so it doesn't go all the way back to the first bit?
There is "no silver bullet". You'd have to do it manually.
