25 * Abbreviations (mnemonics).
33 * By popular demand, we define a struct to represent an expression.
34 * This will no doubt mutate as expressions become baroque.
36 * Currently, we support expressions like "foo-bar+42".
37 * In other words we permit a (possibly undefined) minuend, a
38 * (possibly undefined) subtrahend and an (absolute) augend.
39 * RMS says this is so we can have 1-pass assembly for any compiler
40 * emmissions, and a 'case' statement might emit 'undefined1 - undefined2'.
42 * To simplify table-driven dispatch, we also have a "segment" for the
43 * entire expression. That way we don't require complex reasoning about
44 * whether particular components are defined; and we can change component
45 * semantics without re-working all the dispatch tables in the assembler.
46 * In other words the "type" of an expression is its segment.
