16 bit equivalent of the CMP OPC:

/*! «»«»«»«»{CMP16}«»«»«»«»
    Does exactly the same as CMP of two values (effectively its a A - M) and sets the flags as follows:

    If A = M : Carry =  SET   Zero =  SET   Negative = CLEAR
    If A > M : Carry =  SET   Zero = CLEAR  Negative = CLEAR
    If A < M : Carry = CLEAR  Zero = CLEAR  Negative =  SET
*/

    lda A+1
    cmp M+1
    bne !+
        lda A
        cmp M
!:
    // Status register sorted, from here you can branch as you like as you would after a CMP opc.

Different approach: instead of setting flags, goes to different destinations:

; Val1 ≥ Val2 ?
  LDA Val1 +1    ; high bytes
  CMP Val2+1
  BCC LsThan     ; hiVal1 < hiVal2 --> Val1 < Val2
  BNE GrtEqu     ; hiVal1 ≠ hiVal2 --> Val1 > Val2
  LDA Val1       ; low bytes
  CMP Val2
  ;BEQ Equal     ; Val1 = Val2
  BCS GrtEqu     ; loVal1 ≥ loVal2 --> Val1 ≥ Val2
LsThan
...
GrtEqu
