.\" .AP type name in/out ?indent?
.\"	Start paragraph describing an argument to a library procedure.
.\"	type is type of argument (int, etc.), in/out is either "in", "out",
.\"	or "in/out" to describe whether procedure reads or modifies arg,
.\"	and indent is equivalent to second arg of .IP (shouldn't ever be
.\"	needed;  use .AS below instead)
.\"
.\" .AS ?type? ?name?
.\"	Give maximum sizes of arguments for setting tab stops.  Type and
.\"	name are examples of largest possible arguments that will be passed
.\"	to .AP later.  If args are omitted, default tab stops are used.
.\"
.\" .BS
.\"	Start box enclosure.  From here until next .BE, everything will be
.\"	enclosed in one large box.

.\" .VS ?version? ?br?
.\"	Begin vertical sidebar, for use in marking newly-changed parts
.\"	of man pages.  The first argument is ignored and used for recording
.\"	the version when the .VS was added, so that the sidebars can be
.\"	found and removed when they reach a certain age.  If another argument
.\"	is present, then a line break is forced before starting the sidebar.
.\"

.\"	omitted, defaults to "options". The options follow on successive
.\"	lines, in three columns separated by tabs.
.\"
.\" .SE
.\"	End of list of standard options for a Tk widget.
.\"
.\" .OP cmdName dbName dbClass
.\"	Start of description of a specific option.  cmdName gives the

.SH DESCRIPTION
This package provides a simple in-memory assembler\&. Its origin is that
of a support package for use by packages converting PEG and other
grammars into a corresponding matcher based on the ME virtual machine,
like \fBpage::compiler::peg::mecpu\fR\&. Despite that it is actually
mostly agnostic regarding the instructions, users can choose any
instruction set they like\&.
.PP
The program under construction is held in a graph structure (See
package \fBstruct::graph\fR) during assembly and subsequent
manipulation, with instructions represented by nodes, and the flow of
execution between instructions explicitly encoded in the arcs between
them\&.
.PP
In this model jumps are not encoded explicitly, they are implicit in
the arcs\&. The generation of explicit jumps is left to any code
converting the graph structure into a more conventional
representation\&. The same goes for branches\&. They are implicitly
encoded by all instructions which have two outgoing arcs, whereas all
other instructions have only one outgoing arc\&. Their conditonality is
handled by tagging their outgoing arcs with information about the
conditions under which they are taken\&.
.PP
While the graph the assembler operates on is supplied from the
outside, i\&.e\&. external, it does manage some internal state, namely:
.IP [1]
The handle of the graph node most assembler operations will
work on, the \fIanchor\fR\&.
.IP [2]
A mapping from arbitrary strings to instructions\&. I\&.e\&. it is
possible to \fIlabel\fR an instruction during assembly, and later
recall that instruction by its label\&.
.IP [3]
The condition code to use when creating arcs between
instructions, which is one of \fBalways\fR, \fBok\fR, and
\fBfail\fR\&.
.IP [4]
The current operation mode, one of \fBhalt\fR,
\fBokfail\fR, and \fB!okfail\fR\&.
.IP [5]
The name of a node in a tree\&. This, and the operation mode
above are the parts most heavily influenced by the needs of a grammar
compiler, as they assume some basic program structures (selected
through the operation mode), and intertwine the graph with a tree,
like the AST for the grammar to be compiled\&.
.PP
.SH DEFINITIONS
As the graph the assembler is operating on, and the tree it is
intertwined with, are supplied to the assembler from the outside it is
necessary to specify the API expected from them, and to describe the
structures expected and/or generated by the assembler in either\&.
.PP
.IP [1]
Any graph object command used by the assembler has to provide
the API as specified in the documentation for the package
\fBstruct::graph\fR\&.
.IP [2]
Any tree object command used by the assembler has to provide
the API as specified in the documentation for the package
\fBstruct::tree\fR\&.
.IP [3]
Any instruction (node) generated by the assembler in a graph
will have at least two, and at most three attributes:
.RS
.TP
\fBinstruction\fR
The value of this attribute is the name of
the instruction\&. The only names currently defined by the assembler are
the three pseudo-instructions
.RS
.TP
\fBNOP\fR
This instruction does nothing\&. Useful for fixed
framework nodes, unchanging jump destinations, and the like\&. No
arguments\&.
.TP
\fBC\fR
A \&.NOP to allow the insertion of arbitrary comments
into the instruction stream, i\&.e\&. a comment node\&. One argument, the
text of the comment\&.
.TP
\fBBRA\fR
A \&.NOP serving as explicitly coded conditional
branch\&. No arguments\&.
.RE
.IP
However we reserve the space of all instructions whose names begin
with a "\&." (dot) for future use by the assembler\&.
.TP
\fBarguments\fR
The value of this attribute is a list of
strings, the arguments of the instruction\&. The contents are dependent
on the actual instruction and the assembler doesn't know or care about
them\&. This means for example that it has no builtin knowledge about
what instruction need which arguments and thus doesn't perform any
type of checking\&.
.TP
\fBexpr\fR
This attribute is optional\&. When it is present its
value is the name of a node in the tree intertwined with the graph\&.
.RE
.IP [4]
Any arc between two instructions will have one attribute:
.RS
.TP
\fBcondition\fR
The value of this attribute determines under which
condition execution will take this arc\&. It is one of \fBalways\fR,
\fBok\fR, and \fBfail\fR\&. The first condition is used for all arcs
which are the single outgoing arc of an instruction\&. The other two are
used for the two outgoing arcs of an instruction which implicitly
encode a branch\&.
.RE
.IP [5]
A tree node given to the assembler for cross-referencing will
be written to and given the following attributes, some fixed, some
dependent on the operation mode\&. All values will be references to
nodes in the instruction graph\&. Some of the instruction will expect
some or specific sets of these attributes\&.
.RS
.TP
\fBgas::entry\fR
Always written\&.
.TP
\fBgas::exit\fR
Written for all modes but \fBokfail\fR\&.
.TP
\fBgas::exit::ok\fR
Written for mode \fBokfail\fR\&.
.TP
\fBgas::exit::fail\fR
Written for mode \fBokfail\fR\&.
.RE
.PP
.SH API
.TP
\fB::grammar::me::cpu::gasm::begin\fR \fIg\fR \fIn\fR ?\fImode\fR? ?\fInote\fR?
This command starts the assembly of an instruction sequence, and
(re)initializes the state of the assembler\&. After completion of the
instruction sequence use \fB::grammar::me::cpu::gasm::done\fR to
finalize the assembler\&.
.sp
It will operate on the graph \fIg\fR in the specified \fImode\fR
(Default is \fBokfail\fR)\&. As part of the initialization it will
always create a standard \&.NOP instruction and label it "entry"\&. The
creation of the remaining standard instructions is
\fImode\fR-dependent:
.RS
.TP
\fBhalt\fR
An "icf_halt" instruction labeled "exit/return"\&.
.TP
\fB!okfail\fR
An "icf_ntreturn" instruction labeled "exit/return"\&.
.TP
\fBokfail\fR
Two \&.NOP instructions labeled "exit/ok" and
"exit/fail" respectively\&.
.RE
.IP
The \fInote\fR, if specified (default is not), is given to the "entry" \&.NOP instruction\&.
.sp
The node reference \fIn\fR is simply stored for use by
\fB::grammar::me::cpu::gasm::done\fR\&. It has to refer to a node in the
tree \fIt\fR argument of that command\&.
.sp
After the initialization is done the "entry" instruction will be the
\fIanchor\fR, and the condition code will be set to \fBalways\fR\&.
.sp
The command returns the empy string as its result\&.
.TP
\fB::grammar::me::cpu::gasm::done\fR \fB-->\fR \fIt\fR
This command finalizes the creation of an instruction sequence and
then clears the state of the assembler\&.
\fINOTE\fR that this \fIdoes not\fR delete any of the created
instructions\&. They can be made available to future begin/done cycles\&.
Further assembly will be possible only after reinitialization of the
system via \fB::grammar::me::cpu::gasm::begin\fR\&.
.sp
Before the state is cleared selected references to selected
instructions will be written to attributes of the node \fIn\fR in the
tree \fIt\fR\&.
Which instructions are saved is \fImode\fR-dependent\&. Both \fImode\fR
and the destination node \fIn\fR were specified during invokation of
\fB::grammar::me::cpu::gasm::begin\fR\&.
.sp
Independent of the mode a reference to the instruction labeled "entry"
will be saved to the attribute \fBgas::entry\fR of \fIn\fR\&. The
reference to the node \fIn\fR will further be saved into the attribute
"expr" of the "entry" instruction\&. Beyond that
.RS
.TP
\fBhalt\fR
A reference to the instruction labeled
"exit/return" will be saved to the attribute \fBgas::exit\fR of
\fIn\fR\&.
.TP
\fBokfail\fR
See \fBhalt\fR\&.
.TP
\fB!okfail\fR
Reference to the two instructions labeled
"exit/ok" and "exit/fail" will be saved to the attributes
\fBgas::exit::ok\fR and \fBgas::exit::fail\fR of \fIn\fR
respectively\&.
.RE
.sp
The command returns the empy string as its result\&.
.TP
\fB::grammar::me::cpu::gasm::state\fR
This command returns the current state of the assembler\&. Its format is
not documented and considered to be internal to the package\&.
.TP
\fB::grammar::me::cpu::gasm::state!\fR \fIs\fR
This command takes a serialized assembler state \fIs\fR as returned by
\fB::grammar::me::cpu::gasm::state\fR and makes it the current state
of the assembler\&.
.sp
\fINote\fR that this may overwrite label definitions, however all
non-conflicting label definitions in the state before are not touched
and merged with \fIs\fR\&.
.sp
The command returns the empty string as its result\&.
.TP
\fB::grammar::me::cpu::gasm::lift\fR \fIt\fR \fIdst\fR \fB=\fR \fIsrc\fR
This command operates on the tree \fIt\fR\&. It copies the contents of
the attributes \fBgas::entry\fR, \fBgas::exit::ok\fR and
\fBgas::exit::fail\fR from the node \fIsrc\fR to the node \fIdst\fR\&.
It returns the empty string as its result\&.
.TP
\fB::grammar::me::cpu::gasm::Inline\fR \fIt\fR \fInode\fR \fIlabel\fR
This command links an instruction sequence created by an earlier
begin/done pair into the current instruction sequence\&.
.sp
To this end it
.RS
.IP [1]
reads the instruction references from the attributes
\fBgas::entry\fR, \fBgas::exit::ok\fR, and \fBgas::exit::fail\fR
from the node \fIn\fR of the tree \fIt\fR and makes them available to
assembler und the labels \fIlabel\fR/entry, \fIlabel\fR/exit::ok, and
\fIlabel\fR/exit::fail respectively\&.
.IP [2]
Creates an arc from the \fIanchor\fR to the node labeled
\fIlabel\fR/entry, and tags it with the current condition code\&.
.IP [3]
Makes the node labeled \fIlabel\fR/exit/ok the new \fIanchor\fR\&.
.RE
.IP
The command returns the empty string as its result\&.
.TP
\fB::grammar::me::cpu::gasm::Cmd\fR \fIcmd\fR ?\fIarg\fR\&.\&.\&.?
This is the basic command to add instructions to the graph\&.
It creates a new instruction of type \fIcmd\fR with the given
arguments \fIarg\fR\&.\&.\&.
If the \fIanchor\fR was defined it will also create an arc from the
\fIanchor\fR to the new instruction using the current condition code\&.
After the call the new instruction will be the \fIanchor\fR and the
current condition code will be set to \fBalways\fR\&.
.sp
The command returns the empty string as its result\&.
.TP
\fB::grammar::me::cpu::gasm::Bra\fR
This is a convenience command to create a \&.BRA pseudo-instruction\&. It
uses \fB::grammar::me::cpu::gasm::Cmd\fR to actually create the
instruction and inherits its behaviour\&.
.TP
\fB::grammar::me::cpu::gasm::Nop\fR \fItext\fR
This is a convenience command to create a \&.NOP pseudo-instruction\&. It

instruction\&.
.TP
\fB::grammar::me::cpu::gasm::Note\fR \fItext\fR

labeled with \fIlabel\fR, and tags with the the current condition
code\&.
.sp

.TP
\fB::grammar::me::cpu::gasm::Exit\fR
This command creates an arc from the \fIanchor\fR to one of the exit
instructions, based on the operation mode (see
\fB::grammar::me::cpu::gasm::begin\fR), and tags it with current
condition code\&.
.sp
For mode \fBokfail\fR it links to the instruction labeled either
"exit/ok" or "exit/fail", depending on the current condition code, and
tagging it with the current condition code
For the other two modes it links to the instruction labeled
"exit/return", tagging it condition code \fBalways\fR, independent
