								Copy the characters in <var>str</var> to the object file.  You may specify more than
							 | 
						||
| 
								 | 
							
								one string to copy, separated by commas.  Unless otherwise specified for a
							 | 
						||
| 
								 | 
							
								particular machine, the assembler marks the end of each string with a 0 byte. 
							 | 
						||
| 
								 | 
							
								You can use any of the escape sequences described in <a href="Strings.html#Strings">Strings</a>.
							 | 
						||
| 
								 | 
							
								
							 | 
						||
| 
								 | 
							
								   <p>The variants <code>string16</code>, <code>string32</code> and <code>string64</code> differ from
							 | 
						||
| 
								 | 
							
								the <code>string</code> pseudo opcode in that each 8-bit character from <var>str</var> is
							 | 
						||
| 
								 | 
							
								copied and expanded to 16, 32 or 64 bits respectively.  The expanded characters
							 | 
						||
| 
								 | 
							
								are stored in target endianness byte order.
							 | 
						||
| 
								 | 
							
								
							 | 
						||
| 
								 | 
							
								   <p>Example:
							 | 
						||
| 
								 | 
							
								<pre class="smallexample">     	.string32 "BYE"
							 | 
						||
| 
								 | 
							
								     expands to:
							 | 
						||
| 
								 | 
							
								     	.string   "B\0\0\0Y\0\0\0E\0\0\0"  /* On little endian targets.  */
							 | 
						||
| 
								 | 
							
								     	.string   "\0\0\0B\0\0\0Y\0\0\0E"  /* On big endian targets.  */
