What is GASP?
*************

   The primary purpose of the GNU assembler is to assemble the output of
other programs--notably compilers.  When you have to hand-code
specialized routines in assembly, that means the GNU assembler is an
unfriendly processor: it has no directives for macros, conditionals, or
many other conveniences that you might expect.

   In some cases you can simply use the C preprocessor, or a generalized
preprocessor like M4; but this can be awkward, since none of these
things are designed with assembly in mind.

   GASP fills this need.  It is expressly designed to provide the
facilities you need with hand-coded assembly code.  Implementing it as a
preprocessor, rather than part of the assembler, allows the maximum
flexibility: you can use it with hand-coded assembly, without paying a
penalty of added complexity in the assembler you use for compiler
output.

   Here is a small example to give the flavor of GASP.  This input to
GASP

             .MACRO  saveregs from=8 to=14
     count   .ASSIGNA \from
             ! save r\from..r\to
             .AWHILE  \&count LE \to
             mov     r\&count,@-sp
     count   .ASSIGNA  \&count + 1
             .AENDW
             .ENDM
     
             saveregs from=12
     
     bar:    mov     #H'dead+10,r0
     foo     .SDATAC "hello"<10>
             .END

generates this assembly program:

             ! save r12..r14
             mov     r12,@-sp
             mov     r13,@-sp
             mov     r14,@-sp
     
     bar:    mov     #57005+10,r0
     foo:    .byte   6,104,101,108,108,111,10

Command Line Options
********************

   The simplest way to use GASP is to run it as a filter and assemble
its output.  In Unix and its ilk, you can do this, for example:

     $ gasp prog.asm | as -o prog.o

   Naturally, there are also a few command-line options to allow you to
request variations on this basic theme.  Here is the full set of
possibilities for the GASP command line.

     gasp  [ -a | --alternate ]
           [ -c CHAR | --commentchar CHAR ]
           [ -d | --debug ]  [ -h | --help ] [ -M | --mri ]
           [ -o OUTFILE | --output OUTFILE ]
           [ -p | --print ]  [ -s | --copysource ]
           [ -u | --unreasonable ]  [ -v | --version ]
           INFILE ...

`INFILE ...'
     The input file names.  You must specify at least one input file;
     if you specify more, GASP preprocesses them all, concatenating the
     output in the order you list the INFILE arguments.

     Mark the end of each input file with the preprocessor command
     `.END'.  *Note Miscellaneous commands: Other Commands.

`-a'
`--alternate'
     Use alternative macro syntax.  *Note Alternate macro syntax:
     Alternate, for a discussion of how this syntax differs from the
     default GASP syntax.

`-c 'CHAR''
`--commentchar 'CHAR''
     Use CHAR as the comment character.  The default comment character
     is `!'.  For example, to use a semicolon as the comment character,
     specify `-c ';'' on the GASP command line.  Since assembler
     command characters often have special significance to command
     shells, it is a good idea to quote or escape CHAR when you specify
     a comment character.

     For the sake of simplicity, all examples in this manual use the
     default comment character `!'.

`-d'
`--debug'
     Show debugging statistics.  In this version of GASP, this option
     produces statistics about the string buffers that GASP allocates
     internally.  For each defined buffersize S, GASP shows the number
     of strings N that it allocated, with a line like this:

          strings size S : N

     GASP displays these statistics on the standard error stream, when
     done preprocessing.

`-h'
`--help'
     Display a summary of the GASP command line options.

`-M'
`--mri'
     Use MRI compatibility mode.  Using this option causes GASP to
     accept the syntax and pseudo-ops used by the Microtec Research
     `ASM68K' assembler.

`-o OUTFILE'
`--output OUTFILE'
     Write the output in a file called OUTFILE.  If you do not use the
     `-o' option, GASP writes its output on the standard output stream.

`-p'
`--print'
     Print line numbers.  GASP obeys this option _only_ if you also
     specify `-s' to copy source lines to its output.  With `-s -p',
     GASP displays the line number of each source line copied
     (immediately after the comment character at the beginning of the
     line).

`-s'
`--copysource'
     Copy the source lines to the output file.  Use this option to see
     the effect of each preprocessor line on the GASP output.  GASP
     places a comment character (`!' by default) at the beginning of
     each source line it copies, so that you can use this option and
     still assemble the result.

`-u'
`--unreasonable'
     Bypass "unreasonable expansion" limit.  Since you can define GASP
     macros inside other macro definitions, the preprocessor normally
     includes a sanity check.  If your program requires more than 1,000
     nested expansions, GASP normally exits with an error message.  Use
     this option to turn off this check, allowing unlimited nested
     expansions.

`-v'
`--version'
     Display the GASP version number.

Preprocessor Commands
*********************

   GASP commands have a straightforward syntax that fits in well with
assembly conventions.  In general, a command extends for a line, and may
have up to three fields: an optional label, the command itself, and
optional arguments to the command.  You can write commands in upper or
lower case, though this manual shows them in upper case.  *Note Details
of the GASP syntax: Syntax Details, for more information.

Conditional assembly
====================

   The conditional-assembly directives allow you to include or exclude
portions of an assembly depending on how a pair of expressions, or a
pair of strings, compare.

   The overall structure of conditionals is familiar from many other
contexts.  `.AIF' marks the start of a conditional, and precedes
assembly for the case when the condition is true.   An optional
`.AELSE' precedes assembly for the converse case, and an `.AENDI' marks
the end of the condition.

   You may nest conditionals up to a depth of 100; GASP rejects nesting
beyond that, because it may indicate a bug in your macro structure.

   Conditionals are primarily useful inside macro definitions, where you
often need different effects depending on argument values.  *Note
Defining your own directives: Macros, for details about defining macros.

`.AIF EXPRA CMP EXPRB'
`.AIF "STRA" CMP "STRB"'
     The governing condition goes on the same line as the `.AIF'
     preprocessor command.  You may compare either two strings, or two
     expressions.

     When you compare strings, only two conditional CMP comparison
     operators are available: `EQ' (true if STRA and STRB are
     identical), and `NE' (the opposite).

     When you compare two expressions, _both expressions must be
     absolute_ (*note Arithmetic expressions in GASP: Expressions.).
     You can use these CMP comparison operators with expressions:

    `EQ'
          Are EXPRA and EXPRB equal?  (For strings, are STRA and STRB
          identical?)

    `NE'
          Are EXPRA and EXPRB different?  (For strings, are STRA and
          STRB different?

    `LT'
          Is EXPRA less than EXPRB?  (Not allowed for strings.)

    `LE'
          Is EXPRA less than or equal to EXPRB?  (Not allowed for
          strings.)

    `GT'
          Is EXPRA greater than EXPRB?  (Not allowed for strings.)

    `GE'
          Is EXPRA greater than or equal to EXPRB?  (Not allowed for
          strings.)

`.AELSE'
     Marks the start of assembly code to be included if the condition
     fails.  Optional, and only allowed within a conditional (between
     `.AIF' and `.AENDI').

`.AENDI'
     Marks the end of a conditional assembly.


File: gasp.info,  Node: Loops,  Next: Variables,  Prev: Conditionals,  Up: Commands

Repetitive sections of assembly
===============================

   Two preprocessor directives allow you to repeatedly issue copies of
the same block of assembly code.

`.AREPEAT AEXP'
`.AENDR'
     If you simply need to repeat the same block of assembly over and
     over a fixed number of times, sandwich one instance of the
     repeated block between `.AREPEAT' and `.AENDR'.  Specify the
     number of copies as AEXP (which must be an absolute expression).
     For example, this repeats two assembly statements three times in
     succession:

                  .AREPEAT        3
                  rotcl   r2
                  div1    r0,r1
                  .AENDR

`.AWHILE EXPRA CMP EXPRB'
`.AENDW'
`.AWHILE STRA CMP STRB'
`.AENDW'
     To repeat a block of assembly depending on a conditional test,
     rather than repeating it for a specific number of times, use
     `.AWHILE'.  `.AENDW' marks the end of the repeated block.  The
     conditional comparison works exactly the same way as for `.AIF',
     with the same comparison operators (*note Conditional assembly:
     Conditionals.).

     Since the terms of the comparison must be absolute expression,
     `.AWHILE' is primarily useful within macros.  *Note Defining your
     own directives: Macros.

   You can use the `.EXITM' preprocessor directive to break out of
loops early (as well as to break out of macros).  *Note Defining your
own directives: Macros.


File: gasp.info,  Node: Variables,  Next: Macros,  Prev: Loops,  Up: Commands

Preprocessor variables
======================

   You can use variables in GASP to represent strings, registers, or
the results of expressions.

   You must distinguish two kinds of variables:
  1. Variables defined with `.EQU' or `.ASSIGN'.  To evaluate this kind
     of variable in your assembly output, simply mention its name.  For
     example, these two lines define and use a variable `eg':

          eg     .EQU   FLIP-64
                 ...
                 mov.l  eg,r0

     _Do not use_ this kind of variable in conditional expressions or
     while loops; GASP only evaluates these variables when writing
     assembly output.

  2. Variables for use during preprocessing.  You can define these with
     `.ASSIGNC' or `.ASSIGNA'.  To evaluate this kind of variable,
     write `\&' before the variable name; for example,

          opcit  .ASSIGNA  47
                 ...
                 .AWHILE  \&opcit GT 0
                 ...
                 .AENDW

     GASP treats macro arguments almost the same way, but to evaluate
     them you use the prefix `\' rather than `\&'.  *Note Defining your
     own directives: Macros.

`PVAR .EQU EXPR'
     Assign preprocessor variable PVAR the value of the expression
     EXPR.  There are no restrictions on redefinition; use `.EQU' with
     the same PVAR as often as you find it convenient.

`PVAR .ASSIGN EXPR'
     Almost the same as `.EQU', save that you may not redefine PVAR
     using `.ASSIGN' once it has a value.

`PVAR .ASSIGNA AEXPR'
     Define a variable with a numeric value, for use during
     preprocessing.  AEXPR must be an absolute expression.  You can
     redefine variables with `.ASSIGNA' at any time.

`PVAR .ASSIGNC "STR"'
     Define a variable with a string value, for use during
     preprocessing.  You can redefine variables with `.ASSIGNC' at any
     time.

`PVAR .REG (REGISTER)'
     Use `.REG' to define a variable that represents a register.  In
     particular, REGISTER is _not evaluated_ as an expression.  You may
     use `.REG' at will to redefine register variables.

   All these directives accept the variable name in the "label"
position, that is at the left margin.  You may specify a colon after
the variable name if you wish; the first example above could have
started `eg:' with the same effect.


File: gasp.info,  Node: Macros,  Next: Data,  Prev: Variables,  Up: Commands

Defining your own directives
============================

   The commands `.MACRO' and `.ENDM' allow you to define macros that
generate assembly output.  You can use these macros with a syntax
similar to built-in GASP or assembler directives.  For example, this
definition specifies a macro `SUM' that adds together a range of
consecutive registers:

             .MACRO  SUM FROM=0, TO=9
             ! \FROM \TO
             mov     r\FROM,r10
     COUNT   .ASSIGNA        \FROM+1
             .AWHILE \&COUNT LE \TO
             add     r\&COUNT,r10
     COUNT   .ASSIGNA        \&COUNT+1
             .AENDW
             .ENDM

With that definition, `SUM 0,5' generates this assembly output:

             ! 0 5
             mov     r0,r10
             add     r1,r10
             add     r2,r10
             add     r3,r10
             add     r4,r10
             add     r5,r10

`.MACRO MACNAME'
`.MACRO MACNAME MACARGS ...'
     Begin the definition of a macro called MACNAME.  If your macro
     definition requires arguments, specify their names after the macro
     name, separated by commas or spaces.  You can supply a default
     value for any macro argument by following the name with `=DEFLT'.
     For example, these are all valid `.MACRO' statements:

    `.MACRO COMM'
          Begin the definition of a macro called `COMM', which takes no
          arguments.

    `.MACRO PLUS1 P, P1'
    `.MACRO PLUS1 P P1'
          Either statement begins the definition of a macro called
          `PLUS1', which takes two arguments; within the macro
          definition, write `\P' or `\P1' to evaluate the arguments.

    `.MACRO RESERVE_STR P1=0 P2'
          Begin the definition of a macro called `RESERVE_STR', with two
          arguments.  The first argument has a default value, but not
          the second.  After the definition is complete, you can call
          the macro either as `RESERVE_STR A,B' (with `\P1' evaluating
          to A and `\P2' evaluating to B), or as `RESERVE_STR ,B' (with
          `\P1' evaluating as the default, in this case `0', and `\P2'
          evaluating to B).

     When you call a macro, you can specify the argument values either
     by position, or by keyword.  For example, `SUM 9,17' is equivalent
     to `SUM TO=17, FROM=9'.  Macro arguments are preprocessor variables
     similar to the variables you define with `.ASSIGNA' or `.ASSIGNC';
     in particular, you can use them in conditionals or for loop
     control.  (The only difference is the prefix you write to evaluate
     the variable: for a macro argument, write `\ARGNAME', but for a
     preprocessor variable, write `\&VARNAME'.)

`NAME .MACRO'
`NAME .MACRO ( MACARGS ... )'
     An alternative form of introducing a macro definition: specify the
     macro name in the label position, and the arguments (if any)
     between parentheses after the name.  Defaulting rules and usage
     work the same way as for the other macro definition syntax.

`.ENDM'
     Mark the end of a macro definition.

`.EXITM'
     Exit early from the current macro definition, `.AREPEAT' loop, or
     `.AWHILE' loop.

`\@'
     GASP maintains a counter of how many macros it has executed in
     this pseudo-variable; you can copy that number to your output with
     `\@', but _only within a macro definition_.

`LOCAL NAME [ , ... ]'
     _Warning: `LOCAL' is only available if you select "alternate macro
     syntax" with `-a' or `--alternate'._  *Note Alternate macro
     syntax: Alternate.

     Generate a string replacement for each of the NAME arguments, and
     replace any instances of NAME in each macro expansion.  The
     replacement string is unique in the assembly, and different for
     each separate macro expansion.  `LOCAL' allows you to write macros
     that define symbols, without fear of conflict between separate
     macro expansions.

Data output
===========

   In assembly code, you often need to specify working areas of memory;
depending on the application, you may want to initialize such memory or
not.  GASP provides preprocessor directives to help you avoid
repetitive coding for both purposes.

   You can use labels as usual to mark the data areas.

* Menu:

* Initialized::
* Uninitialized::


File: gasp.info,  Node: Initialized,  Next: Uninitialized,  Up: Data

Initialized data
----------------

   These are the GASP directives for initialized data, and the standard
GNU assembler directives they expand to:

`.DATA EXPR, EXPR, ...'
`.DATA.B EXPR, EXPR, ...'
`.DATA.W EXPR, EXPR, ...'
`.DATA.L EXPR, EXPR, ...'
     Evaluate arithmetic expressions EXPR, and emit the corresponding
     `as' directive (labelled with LAB).  The unqualified `.DATA' emits
     `.long'; `.DATA.B' emits `.byte'; `.DATA.W' emits `.short'; and
     `.DATA.L' emits `.long'.

     For example, `foo .DATA 1,2,3' emits `foo: .long 1,2,3'.

`.DATAB REPEAT, EXPR'
`.DATAB.B REPEAT, EXPR'
`.DATAB.W REPEAT, EXPR'
`.DATAB.L REPEAT, EXPR'
     Make `as' emit REPEAT copies of the value of the expression EXPR
     (using the `as' directive `.fill').  `.DATAB.B' repeats one-byte
     values; `.DATAB.W' repeats two-byte values; and `.DATAB.L' repeats
     four-byte values.  `.DATAB' without a suffix repeats four-byte
     values, just like `.DATAB.L'.

     REPEAT must be an absolute expression with a positive value.

`.SDATA "STR" ...'
     String data.  Emits a concatenation of bytes, precisely as you
     specify them (in particular, _nothing is added to mark the end_ of
     the string).  *Note String and numeric constants: Constants, for
     details about how to write strings.  `.SDATA' concatenates multiple
     arguments, making it easy to switch between string
     representations.  You can use commas to separate the individual
     arguments for clarity, if you choose.

`.SDATAB REPEAT, "STR" ...'
     Repeated string data.  The first argument specifies how many
     copies of the string to emit; the remaining arguments specify the
     string, in the same way as the arguments to `.SDATA'.

`.SDATAZ "STR" ...'
     Zero-terminated string data.  Just like `.SDATA', except that
     `.SDATAZ' writes a zero byte at the end of the string.

`.SDATAC "STR" ...'
     Count-prefixed string data.  Just like `.SDATA', except that GASP
     precedes the string with a leading one-byte count.  For example,
     `.SDATAC "HI"' generates `.byte 2,72,73'.  Since the count field
     is only one byte, you can only use `.SDATAC' for strings less than
     256 bytes in length.


File: gasp.info,  Node: Uninitialized,  Prev: Initialized,  Up: Data

Uninitialized data
------------------

   Use the `.RES', `.SRES', `.SRESC', and `.SRESZ' directives to
reserve memory and leave it uninitialized.  GASP resolves these
directives to appropriate calls of the GNU `as' `.space' directive.

`.RES COUNT'
`.RES.B COUNT'
`.RES.W COUNT'
`.RES.L COUNT'
     Reserve room for COUNT uninitialized elements of data.  The suffix
     specifies the size of each element: `.RES.B' reserves COUNT bytes,
     `.RES.W' reserves COUNT pairs of bytes, and `.RES.L' reserves
     COUNT quartets.  `.RES' without a suffix is equivalent to `.RES.L'.

`.SRES COUNT'
`.SRES.B COUNT'
`.SRES.W COUNT'
`.SRES.L COUNT'
     `.SRES' is a synonym for `.RES'.

`.SRESC COUNT'
`.SRESC.B COUNT'
`.SRESC.W COUNT'
`.SRESC.L COUNT'
     Like `.SRES', but reserves space for `COUNT+1' elements.

`.SRESZ COUNT'
`.SRESZ.B COUNT'
`.SRESZ.W COUNT'
`.SRESZ.L COUNT'
     Like `.SRES', but reserves space for `COUNT+1' elements.

Assembly listing control
========================

   The GASP listing-control directives correspond to related GNU `as'
directives.

`.PRINT LIST'
`.PRINT NOLIST'
     Print control.  This directive emits the GNU `as' directive
     `.list' or `.nolist', according to its argument.  *Note `.list':
     (as.info)List, for details on how these directives interact.

`.FORM LIN=LN'
`.FORM COL=COLS'
`.FORM LIN=LN COL=COLS'
     Specify the page size for assembly listings: LN represents the
     number of lines, and COLS the number of columns.  You may specify
     either page dimension independently, or both together.  If you do
     not specify the number of lines, GASP assumes 60 lines; if you do
     not specify the number of columns, GASP assumes 132 columns.  (Any
     values you may have specified in previous instances of `.FORM' do
     _not_ carry over as defaults.)  Emits the `.psize' assembler
     directive.

`.HEADING STRING'
     Specify STRING as the title of your assembly listings.  Emits
     `.title "STRING"'.

`.PAGE'
     Force a new page in assembly listings.  Emits `.eject'.


File: gasp.info,  Node: Other Commands,  Next: Syntax Details,  Prev: Listings,  Up: Commands

Miscellaneous commands
======================

`.ALTERNATE'
     Use the alternate macro syntax henceforth in the assembly.  *Note
     Alternate macro syntax: Alternate.

`.ORG'
     This command is recognized, but not yet implemented.  GASP
     generates an error message for programs that use `.ORG'.

`.RADIX S'
     GASP understands numbers in any of base two, eight, ten, or
     sixteen.  You can encode the base explicitly in any numeric
     constant (*note String and numeric constants: Constants.).  If you
     write numbers without an explicit indication of the base, the most
     recent `.RADIX S' command determines how they are interpreted.  S
     is a single letter, one of the following:

    `.RADIX B'
          Base 2.

    `.RADIX Q'
          Base 8.

    `.RADIX D'
          Base 10.  This is the original default radix.

    `.RADIX H'
          Base 16.

     You may specify the argument S in lower case (any of `bqdh') with
     the same effects.

`.EXPORT NAME'
`.GLOBAL NAME'
     Declare NAME global (emits `.global NAME').  The two directives
     are synonymous.

`.PROGRAM'
     No effect: GASP accepts this directive, and silently ignores it.

`.END'
     Mark end of each preprocessor file.  GASP issues a warning if it
     reaches end of file without seeing this command.

`.INCLUDE "STR"'
     Preprocess the file named by STR, as if its contents appeared
     where the `.INCLUDE' directive does.  GASP imposes a maximum limit
     of 30 stacked include files, as a sanity check.

`.ALIGN SIZE'
     Evaluate the absolute expression SIZE, and emit the assembly
     instruction `.align SIZE' using the result.

Details of the GASP syntax
==========================

   Since GASP is meant to work with assembly code, its statement syntax
has no surprises for the assembly programmer.

   _Whitespace_ (blanks or tabs; _not_ newline) is partially
significant, in that it delimits up to three fields in a line.  The
amount of whitespace does not matter; you may line up fields in separate
lines if you wish, but GASP does not require that.

   The _first field_, an optional "label", must be flush left in a line
(with no leading whitespace) if it appears at all.  You may use a colon
after the label if you wish; GASP neither requires the colon nor
objects to it (but will not include it as part of the label name).

   The _second field_, which must appear after some whitespace,
contains a GASP or assembly "directive".

   Any _further fields_ on a line are "arguments" to the directive; you
can separate them from one another using either commas or whitespace.

Special syntactic markers
-------------------------

   GASP recognizes a few special markers: to delimit comments, to
continue a statement on the next line, to separate symbols from other
characters, and to copy text to the output literally.  (One other
special marker, `\@', works only within macro definitions; *note
Defining your own directives: Macros..)

   The trailing part of any GASP source line may be a "comment".  A
comment begins with the first unquoted comment character (`!' by
default), or an escaped or doubled comment character (`\!' or `!!' by
default), and extends to the end of a line.  You can specify what
comment character to use with the `-c' option (*note Command Line
Options: Invoking GASP.).  The two kinds of comment markers lead to
slightly different treatment:

`!'
     A single, un-escaped comment character generates an assembly
     comment in the GASP output.  GASP evaluates any preprocessor
     variables (macro arguments, or variables defined with `.ASSIGNA' or
     `.ASSIGNC') present.  For example, a macro that begins like this

                  .MACRO  SUM FROM=0, TO=9
                  ! \FROM \TO

     issues as the first line of output a comment that records the
     values you used to call the macro.

`\!'
`!!'
     Either an escaped comment character, or a double comment character,
     marks a GASP source comment.  GASP does not copy such comments to
     the assembly output.

   To _continue a statement_ on the next line of the file, begin the
second line with the character `+'.

   Occasionally you may want to prevent GASP from preprocessing some
particular bit of text.  To _copy literally_ from the GASP source to
its output, place `\(' before the string to copy, and `)' at the end.
For example, write `\(\!)' if you need the characters `\!' in your
assembly output.

   To _separate a preprocessor variable_ from text to appear
immediately after its value, write a single quote (`'').  For example,
`.SDATA "\P'1"' writes a string built by concatenating the value of `P'
and the digit `1'.  (You cannot achieve this by writing just `\P1',
since `P1' is itself a valid name for a preprocessor variable.)


File: gasp.info,  Node: Constants,  Next: Symbols,  Prev: Markers,  Up: Syntax Details

String and numeric constants
----------------------------

   There are two ways of writing "string constants" in GASP: as literal
text, and by numeric byte value.  Specify a string literal between
double quotes (`"STR"').  Specify an individual numeric byte value as
an absolute expression between angle brackets (`<EXPR>'.  Directives
that output strings allow you to specify any number of either kind of
value, in whatever order is convenient, and concatenate the result.
(Alternate syntax mode introduces a number of alternative string
notations; *note Alternate macro syntax: Alternate..)

   You can write "numeric constants" either in a specific base, or in
whatever base is currently selected (either 10, or selected by the most
recent `.RADIX').

   To write a number in a _specific base_, use the pattern `S'DDD': a
base specifier character S, followed by a single quote followed by
digits DDD.  The base specifier character matches those you can specify
with `.RADIX': `B' for base 2, `Q' for base 8, `D' for base 10, and `H'
for base 16.  (You can write this character in lower case if you
prefer.)

Symbols
-------

   GASP recognizes symbol names that start with any alphabetic
character, `_', or `$', and continue with any of the same characters or
with digits.  Label names follow the same rules.


File: gasp.info,  Node: Expressions,  Next: String Builtins,  Prev: Symbols,  Up: Syntax Details

Arithmetic expressions in GASP
------------------------------

   There are two kinds of expressions, depending on their result:
"absolute" expressions, which resolve to a constant (that is, they do
not involve any values unknown to GASP), and "relocatable" expressions,
which must reduce to the form

     ADDSYM+CONST-SUBSYM

where ADDSYM and SUBSYM are assembly symbols of unknown value, and
CONST is a constant.

   Arithmetic for GASP expressions follows very similar rules to C.
You can use parentheses to change precedence; otherwise, arithmetic
primitives have decreasing precedence in the order of the following
list.

  1. Single-argument `+' (identity), `-' (arithmetic opposite), or `~'
     (bitwise negation).  _The argument must be an absolute expression._

  2. `*' (multiplication) and `/' (division).  _Both arguments must be
     absolute expressions._

  3. `+' (addition) and `-' (subtraction).  _At least one argument must
     be absolute._

  4. `&' (bitwise and).  _Both arguments must be absolute._

  5. `|' (bitwise or) and `~' (bitwise exclusive or; `^' in C).  _Both
     arguments must be absolute._


File: gasp.info,  Node: String Builtins,  Prev: Expressions,  Up: Syntax Details

String primitives
-----------------

   You can use these primitives to manipulate strings (in the argument
field of GASP statements):

`.LEN("STR")'
     Calculate the length of string `"STR"', as an absolute expression.
     For example, `.RES.B .LEN("sample")' reserves six bytes of memory.

`.INSTR("STRING", "SEG", IX)'
     Search for the first occurrence of SEG after position IX of
     STRING.  For example, `.INSTR("ABCDEFG", "CDE", 0)' evaluates to
     the absolute result `2'.

     The result is `-1' if SEG does not occur in STRING after position
     IX.

`.SUBSTR("STRING",START,LEN)'
     The substring of STRING beginning at byte number START and
     extending for LEN bytes.

Alternate macro syntax
======================

   If you specify `-a' or `--alternate' on the GASP command line, the
preprocessor uses somewhat different syntax.  This syntax is
reminiscent of the syntax of Phar Lap macro assembler, but it is _not_
meant to be a full emulation of Phar Lap or similar assemblers.  In
particular, GASP does not support directives such as `DB' and `IRP',
even in alternate syntax mode.

   In particular, `-a' (or `--alternate') elicits these differences:

_Preprocessor directives_
     You can use GASP preprocessor directives without a leading `.'
     dot.  For example, you can write `SDATA' with the same effect as
     `.SDATA'.

_LOCAL_
     One additional directive, `LOCAL', is available.  *Note Defining
     your own directives: Macros, for an explanation of how to use
     `LOCAL'.

_String delimiters_
     You can write strings delimited in these other ways besides
     `"STRING"':

    `'STRING''
          You can delimit strings with single-quote charaters.

    `<STRING>'
          You can delimit strings with matching angle brackets.

_single-character string escape_
     To include any single character literally in a string (even if the
     character would otherwise have some special meaning), you can
     prefix the character with `!' (an exclamation mark).  For example,
     you can write `<4.3 !> 5.4!!>' to get the literal text `4.3 >
     5.4!'.

_Expression results as strings_
     You can write `%EXPR' to evaluate the expression EXPR and use the
     result as a string.

   Version 1.1, March 2000

   Copyright (C) 2000  Free Software Foundation, Inc.    59 Temple
Place, Suite 330, Boston, MA  02111-1307  USA

   Everyone is permitted to copy and distribute verbatim copies  of
this license document, but changing it is not allowed.

   0. PREAMBLE

   The purpose of this License is to make a manual, textbook, or other
written document "free" in the sense of freedom: to assure everyone the
effective freedom to copy and redistribute it, with or without
modifying it, either commercially or noncommercially.  Secondarily,
this License preserves for the author and publisher a way to get credit
for their work, while not being considered responsible for
modifications made by others.

   This License is a kind of "copyleft", which means that derivative
works of the document must themselves be free in the same sense.  It
complements the GNU General Public License, which is a copyleft license
designed for free software.

   We have designed this License in order to use it for manuals for free
software, because free software needs free documentation: a free
program should come with manuals providing the same freedoms that the
software does.  But this License is not limited to software manuals; it
can be used for any textual work, regardless of subject matter or
whether it is published as a printed book.  We recommend this License
principally for works whose purpose is instruction or reference.

   1. APPLICABILITY AND DEFINITIONS

   This License applies to any manual or other work that contains a
notice placed by the copyright holder saying it can be distributed
under the terms of this License.  The "Document", below, refers to any
such manual or work.  Any member of the public is a licensee, and is
addressed as "you".

   A "Modified Version" of the Document means any work containing the
Document or a portion of it, either copied verbatim, or with
modifications and/or translated into another language.

   A "Secondary Section" is a named appendix or a front-matter section
of the Document that deals exclusively with the relationship of the
publishers or authors of the Document to the Document's overall subject
(or to related matters) and contains nothing that could fall directly
within that overall subject.  (For example, if the Document is in part a
textbook of mathematics, a Secondary Section may not explain any
mathematics.)  The relationship could be a matter of historical
connection with the subject or with related matters, or of legal,
commercial, philosophical, ethical or political position regarding them.

   The "Invariant Sections" are certain Secondary Sections whose titles
are designated, as being those of Invariant Sections, in the notice
that says that the Document is released under this License.

   The "Cover Texts" are certain short passages of text that are listed,
as Front-Cover Texts or Back-Cover Texts, in the notice that says that
the Document is released under this License.

   A "Transparent" copy of the Document means a machine-readable copy,
represented in a format whose specification is available to the general
public, whose contents can be viewed and edited directly and
straightforwardly with generic text editors or (for images composed of
pixels) generic paint programs or (for drawings) some widely available
drawing editor, and that is suitable for input to text formatters or
for automatic translation to a variety of formats suitable for input to
text formatters.  A copy made in an otherwise Transparent file format
whose markup has been designed to thwart or discourage subsequent
modification by readers is not Transparent.  A copy that is not
"Transparent" is called "Opaque".

   Examples of suitable formats for Transparent copies include plain
ASCII without markup, Texinfo input format, LaTeX input format, SGML or
XML using a publicly available DTD, and standard-conforming simple HTML
designed for human modification.  Opaque formats include PostScript,
PDF, proprietary formats that can be read and edited only by
proprietary word processors, SGML or XML for which the DTD and/or
processing tools are not generally available, and the machine-generated
HTML produced by some word processors for output purposes only.

   The "Title Page" means, for a printed book, the title page itself,
plus such following pages as are needed to hold, legibly, the material
this License requires to appear in the title page.  For works in
formats which do not have any title page as such, "Title Page" means
the text near the most prominent appearance of the work's title,
preceding the beginning of the body of the text.

   2. VERBATIM COPYING

   You may copy and distribute the Document in any medium, either
commercially or noncommercially, provided that this License, the
copyright notices, and the license notice saying this License applies
to the Document are reproduced in all copies, and that you add no other
conditions whatsoever to those of this License.  You may not use
technical measures to obstruct or control the reading or further
copying of the copies you make or distribute.  However, you may accept
compensation in exchange for copies.  If you distribute a large enough
number of copies you must also follow the conditions in section 3.

   You may also lend copies, under the same conditions stated above, and
you may publicly display copies.

   3. COPYING IN QUANTITY

   If you publish printed copies of the Document numbering more than
100, and the Document's license notice requires Cover Texts, you must
enclose the copies in covers that carry, clearly and legibly, all these
Cover Texts: Front-Cover Texts on the front cover, and Back-Cover Texts
on the back cover.  Both covers must also clearly and legibly identify
you as the publisher of these copies.  The front cover must present the
full title with all words of the title equally prominent and visible.
You may add other material on the covers in addition.  Copying with
changes limited to the covers, as long as they preserve the title of
the Document and satisfy these conditions, can be treated as verbatim
copying in other respects.

   If the required texts for either cover are too voluminous to fit
legibly, you should put the first ones listed (as many as fit
reasonably) on the actual cover, and continue the rest onto adjacent
pages.

   If you publish or distribute Opaque copies of the Document numbering
more than 100, you must either include a machine-readable Transparent
copy along with each Opaque copy, or state in or with each Opaque copy
a publicly-accessible computer-network location containing a complete
Transparent copy of the Document, free of added material, which the
general network-using public has access to download anonymously at no
charge using public-standard network protocols.  If you use the latter
option, you must take reasonably prudent steps, when you begin
distribution of Opaque copies in quantity, to ensure that this
Transparent copy will remain thus accessible at the stated location
until at least one year after the last time you distribute an Opaque
copy (directly or through your agents or retailers) of that edition to
the public.

   It is requested, but not required, that you contact the authors of
the Document well before redistributing any large number of copies, to
give them a chance to provide you with an updated version of the
Document.

   4. MODIFICATIONS

   You may copy and distribute a Modified Version of the Document under
the conditions of sections 2 and 3 above, provided that you release the
Modified Version under precisely this License, with the Modified
Version filling the role of the Document, thus licensing distribution
and modification of the Modified Version to whoever possesses a copy of
it.  In addition, you must do these things in the Modified Version:

   A. Use in the Title Page (and on the covers, if any) a title distinct
  from that of the Document, and from those of previous versions
(which should, if there were any, be listed in the History section
of the Document).  You may use the same title as a previous version
if the original publisher of that version gives permission.  B. List on
the Title Page, as authors, one or more persons or entities
responsible for authorship of the modifications in the Modified
Version, together with at least five of the principal authors of the
Document (all of its principal authors, if it has less than five).  C.
State on the Title page the name of the publisher of the    Modified
Version, as the publisher.  D. Preserve all the copyright notices of
the Document.  E. Add an appropriate copyright notice for your
modifications    adjacent to the other copyright notices.  F. Include,
immediately after the copyright notices, a license notice    giving the
public permission to use the Modified Version under the    terms of
this License, in the form shown in the Addendum below.  G. Preserve in
that license notice the full lists of Invariant Sections    and
required Cover Texts given in the Document's license notice.  H.
Include an unaltered copy of this License.  I. Preserve the section
entitled "History", and its title, and add to    it an item stating at
least the title, year, new authors, and    publisher of the Modified
Version as given on the Title Page.  If    there is no section entitled
"History" in the Document, create one    stating the title, year,
authors, and publisher of the Document as    given on its Title Page,
then add an item describing the Modified    Version as stated in the
previous sentence.  J. Preserve the network location, if any, given in
the Document for    public access to a Transparent copy of the
Document, and likewise    the network locations given in the Document
for previous versions    it was based on.  These may be placed in the
"History" section.     You may omit a network location for a work that
was published at    least four years before the Document itself, or if
the original    publisher of the version it refers to gives permission.
K. In any section entitled "Acknowledgements" or "Dedications",
preserve the section's title, and preserve in the section all the
substance and tone of each of the contributor acknowledgements
and/or dedications given therein.  L. Preserve all the Invariant
Sections of the Document,    unaltered in their text and in their
titles.  Section numbers    or the equivalent are not considered part
of the section titles.  M. Delete any section entitled "Endorsements".
Such a section    may not be included in the Modified Version.  N. Do
not retitle any existing section as "Endorsements"    or to conflict in
title with any Invariant Section.

   If the Modified Version includes new front-matter sections or
appendices that qualify as Secondary Sections and contain no material
copied from the Document, you may at your option designate some or all
of these sections as invariant.  To do this, add their titles to the
list of Invariant Sections in the Modified Version's license notice.
These titles must be distinct from any other section titles.

   You may add a section entitled "Endorsements", provided it contains
nothing but endorsements of your Modified Version by various
parties-for example, statements of peer review or that the text has
been approved by an organization as the authoritative definition of a
standard.

   You may add a passage of up to five words as a Front-Cover Text, and
a passage of up to 25 words as a Back-Cover Text, to the end of the list
of Cover Texts in the Modified Version.  Only one passage of
Front-Cover Text and one of Back-Cover Text may be added by (or through
arrangements made by) any one entity.  If the Document already includes
a cover text for the same cover, previously added by you or by
arrangement made by the same entity you are acting on behalf of, you
may not add another; but you may replace the old one, on explicit
permission from the previous publisher that added the old one.

   The author(s) and publisher(s) of the Document do not by this License
give permission to use their names for publicity for or to assert or
imply endorsement of any Modified Version.

   5. COMBINING DOCUMENTS

   You may combine the Document with other documents released under this
License, under the terms defined in section 4 above for modified
versions, provided that you include in the combination all of the
Invariant Sections of all of the original documents, unmodified, and
list them all as Invariant Sections of your combined work in its
license notice.

   The combined work need only contain one copy of this License, and
multiple identical Invariant Sections may be replaced with a single
copy.  If there are multiple Invariant Sections with the same name but
different contents, make the title of each such section unique by
adding at the end of it, in parentheses, the name of the original
author or publisher of that section if known, or else a unique number.
Make the same adjustment to the section titles in the list of Invariant
Sections in the license notice of the combined work.

   In the combination, you must combine any sections entitled "History"
in the various original documents, forming one section entitled
"History"; likewise combine any sections entitled "Acknowledgements",
and any sections entitled "Dedications".  You must delete all sections
entitled "Endorsements."

   6. COLLECTIONS OF DOCUMENTS

   You may make a collection consisting of the Document and other
documents released under this License, and replace the individual
copies of this License in the various documents with a single copy that
is included in the collection, provided that you follow the rules of
this License for verbatim copying of each of the documents in all other
respects.

   You may extract a single document from such a collection, and
distribute it individually under this License, provided you insert a
copy of this License into the extracted document, and follow this
License in all other respects regarding verbatim copying of that
document.

   7. AGGREGATION WITH INDEPENDENT WORKS

   A compilation of the Document or its derivatives with other separate
and independent documents or works, in or on a volume of a storage or
distribution medium, does not as a whole count as a Modified Version of
the Document, provided no compilation copyright is claimed for the
compilation.  Such a compilation is called an "aggregate", and this
License does not apply to the other self-contained works thus compiled
with the Document, on account of their being thus compiled, if they are
not themselves derivative works of the Document.

   If the Cover Text requirement of section 3 is applicable to these
copies of the Document, then if the Document is less than one quarter
of the entire aggregate, the Document's Cover Texts may be placed on
covers that surround only the Document within the aggregate.  Otherwise
they must appear on covers around the whole aggregate.

   8. TRANSLATION

   Translation is considered a kind of modification, so you may
distribute translations of the Document under the terms of section 4.
Replacing Invariant Sections with translations requires special
permission from their copyright holders, but you may include
translations of some or all Invariant Sections in addition to the
original versions of these Invariant Sections.  You may include a
translation of this License provided that you also include the original
English version of this License.  In case of a disagreement between the
translation and the original English version of this License, the
original English version will prevail.

   9. TERMINATION

   You may not copy, modify, sublicense, or distribute the Document
except as expressly provided for under this License.  Any other attempt
to copy, modify, sublicense or distribute the Document is void, and will
automatically terminate your rights under this License.  However,
parties who have received copies, or rights, from you under this
License will not have their licenses terminated so long as such parties
remain in full compliance.

   10. FUTURE REVISIONS OF THIS LICENSE

   The Free Software Foundation may publish new, revised versions of
the GNU Free Documentation License from time to time.  Such new
versions will be similar in spirit to the present version, but may
differ in detail to address new problems or concerns.  See
http://www.gnu.org/copyleft/.

   Each version of the License is given a distinguishing version number.
If the Document specifies that a particular numbered version of this
License "or any later version" applies to it, you have the option of
following the terms and conditions either of that specified version or
of any later version that has been published (not as a draft) by the
Free Software Foundation.  If the Document does not specify a version
number of this License, you may choose any version ever published (not
as a draft) by the Free Software Foundation.

   ADDENDUM: How to use this License for your documents

   To use this License in a document you have written, include a copy of
the License in the document and put the following copyright and license
notices just after the title page:

         Copyright (c)  YEAR  YOUR NAME.
         Permission is granted to copy, distribute and/or modify this document
         under the terms of the GNU Free Documentation License, Version 1.1
         or any later version published by the Free Software Foundation;
         with the Invariant Sections being LIST THEIR TITLES, with the
         Front-Cover Texts being LIST, and with the Back-Cover Texts being LIST.
         A copy of the license is included in the section entitled "GNU
         Free Documentation License".

   If you have no Invariant Sections, write "with no Invariant Sections"
instead of saying which ones are invariant.  If you have no Front-Cover
Texts, write "no Front-Cover Texts" instead of "Front-Cover Texts being
LIST"; likewise for Back-Cover Texts.

   If your document contains nontrivial examples of program code, we
recommend releasing these examples in parallel under your choice of
free software license, such as the GNU General Public License, to
permit their use in free software.
