Added --define to lwasm documentation.
Added documentation of the -D/--define command line option for lwasm. It has
been present for a long time but has somehow escaped documentation.

Numbers and Expressions</A +></H1 +><P +> Numbers can be expressed in binary, octal, decimal, or hexadecimal. Binary +numbers may be prefixed with a "%" symbol or suffixed with a "b" or "B". +Octal numbers may be prefixed with "@" or suffixed with "Q", "q", "O", or +"o". Hexadecimal numbers may be prefixed with "$", "0x" or "0X", or suffixed +with "H". No prefix or suffix is required for decimal numbers but they can +be prefixed with "&" if desired. Any constant which begins with a letter +must be expressed with the correct prefix base identifier or be prefixed +with a 0. Thus hexadecimal FF would have to be written either 0FFH or $FF. +Numbers are not case sensitive. </P +><P +> A symbol may appear at any point where a number is acceptable. The +special symbol "*" can be used to represent the starting address of the +current source line within expressions. </P +><P +>The ASCII value of a character can be included by prefixing it with a +single quote ('). The ASCII values of two characters can be included by +prefixing the characters with a quote (").</P +><P +> LWASM supports the following basic binary operators: +, -, *, /, and %. +These represent addition, subtraction, multiplication, division, and +modulus. It also supports unary negation and unary 1's complement (- and ^ +respectively). It is also possible to use ~ for the unary 1's complement +operator. For completeness, a unary positive (+) is supported though it is +a no-op. LWASM also supports using |, &, and ^ for bitwise or, bitwise and, +and bitwise exclusive or respectively. </P +><P +> Operator precedence follows the usual rules. Multiplication, division, and +modulus take precedence over addition and subtraction. Unary operators take +precedence over binary operators. Bitwise operators are lower precdence +than addition and subtraction. To force a specific order of evaluation, +parentheses can be used in the usual manner. </P +><P +> As of LWASM 2.5, the operators && and || are recognized for boolean and and +boolean or respectively. They will return either 0 or 1 (false or true). +They have the lowest precedence of all the binary operators. </P +></DIV +><DIV +CLASS="NAVFOOTER" +><HR +ALIGN="LEFT" +WIDTH="100%"><TABLE +SUMMARY="Footer navigation table" +WIDTH="100%" +BORDER="0" +CELLPADDING="0" +CELLSPACING="0" +><TR +><TD +WIDTH="33%" +ALIGN="left" +VALIGN="top" +><A +HREF="x187.html" +ACCESSKEY="P" +>Prev</A +></TD +><TD +WIDTH="34%" +ALIGN="center" +VALIGN="top" +><A +HREF="index.html" +ACCESSKEY="H" +>Home</A +></TD +><TD +WIDTH="33%" +ALIGN="right" +VALIGN="top" +><A +HREF="x200.html" +ACCESSKEY="N" +>Next</A +></TD +></TR +><TR +><TD +WIDTH="33%" +ALIGN="left" +VALIGN="top" +>Symbols</TD +><TD +WIDTH="34%" +ALIGN="center" +VALIGN="top" +><A +HREF="c45.html" +ACCESSKEY="U" +>Up</A +></TD +><TD +WIDTH="33%" +ALIGN="right" +VALIGN="top" +>Assembler Directives</TD +></TR +></TABLE +></DIV +></BODY +></HTML +> \ No newline at end of file
