Definition
SEGSIZE allows you to specify the memory space used by a segment.
The segment name may be any segment contained in the input module.
The size is a 16-bit number that LOC86 uses to change the size of the specified seg-
ment. There are three ways of specifying this value:
• +
indicates that the number should be added to the current segment length.
• - indicates that the number should bl::! subtracted from the current segment
length.
• No sign indicates that the number should become the new segment length.
Notes
• LOC86 issues a warning message when SEGSIZE decreases the size of a
segment.
