This command (AsmComp) does not look like a ASCII to Hex converter. If you
look logically at this command it looks like its a shorter way of saying
Assembly (from Asm) Compiler (from Comp) This makes it seem like a user
can type Asm code into the calc, use this command, then have a compiled
program to use.
