Yes, you're right, JR is jump relative. This still cannot be done without
knowing the relative address of the code that you want to jump to.Let's say
that you want to jump to a function. You count the lines, and figure that
it's say 98 bytes from the line that you are jumping from. Ok, you add a
line, remove three lines, add one more, and reomve another. Then you have
to totally re-count the address. Assuming that you count them correctly,
not all asm commands are 2 bytes. Some are 6, 8, etc. By this time, you'd
have been better off just JUMP_(name)'ing in the beginnig.
