It's a constant set to equal 2^n, or in binary, 1 followed by n zeroes.
ugh! yeah, i see that now... the layout confused me as i'm used to CONST being
on its own line or prefixed to every constant defined...
eg:
const
n=12;
s=1 shl n;
OR
const n=12;
const s=1 shl n;
P.S. And yes, that mask is also zero-extended to 32-bit or whatever the word
size is on the CPU.
