Assembler headers

[Tony van der Hoff]

Hi,

Can someone here please clarify my (lack of) understanding of ARM assembler
string operators?

The problem is this:

In (say) OS.swi, OSLib defines (say) OS_VDUNull = .Char: 0
DefMod translates this correctly to #define os_VDU_NULL (char)0 for C; and (I
think incorrectly) to os_VDUNull * :CHR: &0 for assembler.

As I read it, :CHR: is a string operator, which really has no place here.
OBJASM accepts it, but AS barfs on the null string. I think, in this
instance, AS is correct, which means DefMod needs fixing to just generate
os_VDUNull * &0.

Any comments?
