(gasp.info) Constants

 
 String and numeric constants
 ----------------------------
 
    There are two ways of writing "string constants" in GASP: as literal
 text, and by numeric byte value.  Specify a string literal between
 double quotes (`"STR"').  Specify an individual numeric byte value as
 an absolute expression between angle brackets (`<EXPR>'.  Directives
 that output strings allow you to specify any number of either kind of
 value, in whatever order is convenient, and concatenate the result.
 (Alternate syntax mode introduces a number of alternative string
 notations;  Alternate macro syntax Alternate..)
 
    You can write "numeric constants" either in a specific base, or in
 whatever base is currently selected (either 10, or selected by the most
 recent `.RADIX').
 
    To write a number in a _specific base_, use the pattern `S'DDD': a
 base specifier character S, followed by a single quote followed by
 digits DDD.  The base specifier character matches those you can specify
 with `.RADIX': `B' for base 2, `Q' for base 8, `D' for base 10, and `H'
 for base 16.  (You can write this character in lower case if you
 prefer.)
