21 /* By popular demand, we define a struct to represent an expression.
22 This will no doubt mutate as expressions become baroque.
24 Currently, we support expressions like "foo OP bar + 42". In other
25 words we permit a (possibly undefined) symbol, a (possibly
26 undefined) symbol and the operation used to combine the symbols,
27 and an (absolute) augend. RMS says this is so we can have 1-pass
28 assembly for any compiler emissions, and a 'case' statement might
29 emit 'undefined1 - undefined2'.
31 The type of an expression used to be stored as a segment. That got
32 confusing because it overloaded the concept of a segment. I added
33 an operator field, instead. */
