A couple months ago a out out a feeler about local symbols. I received 2
positive and 0 negative replies. Not exactly overwhelming :-( . Since I now
need to merge my local changes into the next rev I would like to submit
to the repository for inclusion after this rev.
To me, local symbols are a must for large projects written in assembler.
1. No need to think up numerous names
2. The scope of the label is local to the current routine.
3. I use symbols of the for "@1" "@6" etc. Assigning the labels
sequentially
makes following the code simpler.
The downside is that the code is not usable by MPASM. As I am Linux based
and of the attitude that tools should not be limited to the popular
offering,
this is not a problem for me.
