EVEN and ALIGN Directives

Microsoft Specific

Although the inline assembler doesn't support most MASM directives, it does support EVEN and ALIGN. These directives put NOP (no operation) instructions in the assembly code as needed to align labels to specific boundaries. This makes instruction-fetch operations more efficient for some processors.
