| <p><var>repeat</var>, <var>size</var> and <var>value</var> are absolute expressions. |
| This emits <var>repeat</var> copies of <var>size</var> bytes. <var>Repeat</var> |
| may be zero or more. <var>Size</var> may be zero or more, but if it is |
| more than 8, then it is deemed to have the value 8, compatible with |
| other people’s assemblers. The contents of each <var>repeat</var> bytes |
| is taken from an 8-byte number. The highest order 4 bytes are |
| zero. The lowest order 4 bytes are <var>value</var> rendered in the |
| byte-order of an integer on the computer <code>as</code> is assembling for. |
| Each <var>size</var> bytes in a repetition is taken from the lowest order |
| <var>size</var> bytes of this number. Again, this bizarre behavior is |
| compatible with other people’s assemblers. |
| </p> |
| <p><var>size</var> and <var>value</var> are optional. |
| If the second comma and <var>value</var> are absent, <var>value</var> is |
| assumed zero. If the first comma and following tokens are absent, |
| <var>size</var> is assumed to be 1. |
