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.  */
 | 
						|
</pre>
