Hi
IMCC allows for both ".local" and ".sym" directives to declare a local
variable.
There is the issue with macros, as .local is used in macros to declare
labels, IIRC, so the you 'd need ".sym" to declare locals there.
However, outside of macros, there is no such issue. Having two ways
to do it
makes IMCC unnecessarily complex.
I propose removing the ".sym" directive for normal cases (not for
the macro
stuff).
If we're doing that, I think it would make sense to
- remove .sym everywhere.
- change the thing that is called .local inside a macro to something
else
My 2₰.
