I guess this sets the specified number of bytes to zero? Exactly right. What do you think of this description: 7.104 '.zero SIZE' ================== This directive emits SIZE 0-valued bytes. SIZE must be an absolute expression. This directive is actually an alias for the '.skip' directive so in can take an optional second argument of the value to store in the bytes instead of zero. Using '.zero' in this way would be confusing however.
