Description
It would be super-dooper-cool if DASM had an option to include a comment on each line in the listing file, giving cycle counts for the instructions on that line. Also, perhaps a few embedded directives to start cycle count @ value, give the sum so far, hints for loops/branches, etc.

Research direction
The issue names no files, tests, or entry points. Start by locating the listing-file generation path and the instruction cycle data, then clarify the option and directive syntax with maintainers. Done would require an agreed design covering per-line counts and any start, total, loop, or branch directives.
