how about just that. something like "asm 30" that will print all
the machine instructions that correspond to line 30 of the
source. in a gui, this would be something like, selecting a
source line would highlight the corresponding lines in a
disassembly window. or in a mixed source/asm window, an option
to choose whether it's ordered by source or by asm.
