sval

Assemble a string.

sval

expects one string literal, delimited by single quotes. It assembles each

byte of the string into consecutive addresses. You can use the escape sequence

%xx

(where

xx

represents a two digit hexadecimal number) to represent the character whose ascii value is

xx

.

Use this feature to describe single quote and other characters that may not appear in string literals

as themselves. For example, the C statement

char *a = "he said \"it's 50% off\"";

is represented in Z8000 assembly language (shown with the assembler output in hex at the left)

as

68652073

sval

'he said %22it%27s 50%25 off%22%00'
