<a name="index-PDP_002d11-syntax"></a>
<a name="index-DEC-syntax"></a>
<a name="index-BSD-syntax"></a>
<p><code>as</code> supports both DEC syntax and BSD syntax. The only
difference is that in DEC syntax, a <code>#</code> character is used to denote
an immediate constants, while in BSD syntax the character for this
purpose is <code>$</code>.
</p>
<a name="index-PDP_002d11-general_002dpurpose-register-syntax"></a>
<p>general-purpose registers are named <code>r0</code> through <code>r7</code>.
Mnemonic alternatives for <code>r6</code> and <code>r7</code> are <code>sp</code> and
<code>pc</code>, respectively.
</p>
<a name="index-PDP_002d11-floating_002dpoint-register-syntax"></a>
<p>Floating-point registers are named <code>ac0</code> through <code>ac3</code>, or
alternatively <code>fr0</code> through <code>fr3</code>.
</p>
<a name="index-PDP_002d11-comments"></a>
<p>Comments are started with a <code>#</code> or a <code>/</code> character, and extend
to the end of the line. (FIXME: clash with immediates?)
</p>
<a name="index-PDP_002d11-line-separator"></a>
<p>Multiple statements on the same line can be separated by the &lsquo;<samp>;</samp>&rsquo; character.
