; Each dictionary entry needs a link to the previous entry. The
; initlink macro uses the nasm context stack to push a context and
; define a context-local macro called %$link that represents the
; end of the dictionary.
%macro initlink 0
%push
%define %$link 0
%endmacro
initlink ; expand initlink so %$link is initialized
; The link macro links dictionary entries by pushing a new context
; and redefining %$link as a context-local label at the current
; location (address) in the code. It then writes a 16-bit data
; word with the value of %$link in the previous context (i.e. the
; previous expansion of link), effectively writing a link field to
; the previous location.
%macro link 0
%push
%$link:
dw %$$link
%endmacro
; last entry links to zero, marking the end of the dictionary.
; As dictionary entries are defined, link will be redefined to
; point to the previous entry.
%define link 0
; defword lays out a dictionary entry where it is expanded.
%macro defword 3-4 0 ; name, length, label, flags
word_%3:
link ; link to previous word
dw link ; link to previous word
%define link word_%3
