The special “dot” symbol, “.” The special “.” symbol refers to the current address into which as is assembling. Thus, the expression, melvin: .long, defines melvin to contain its own address. Assigning a value to “.” is treated the same as a .org directive. Thus, the expression of ‘.=.+4’ is the same as saying ‘.space 4’. |
