<a name="index-if-directive"></a>
|
<p><code>.if</code> marks the beginning of a section of code which is only
|
considered part of the source program being assembled if the argument
|
(which must be an <var>absolute expression</var>) is non-zero. The end of
|
the conditional section of code must be marked by <code>.endif</code>
|
(see <a href="Endif.html#Endif"><code>.endif</code></a>); optionally, you may include code for the
|
alternative condition, flagged by <code>.else</code> (see <a href="Else.html#Else"><code>.else</code></a>).
|
If you have several conditions to check, <code>.elseif</code> may be used to avoid
|
nesting blocks if/else within each subsequent <code>.else</code> block.
|
</p>
|
<p>The following variants of <code>.if</code> are also supported:

<dt><code>.ifdef <var>symbol</var></code></dt>

<dt><code>.ifb <var>text</var></code></dt>

<dd><p>Assembles the following section of code if the two strings are the same. The
|
strings may be optionally quoted with single quotes. If they are not quoted,
|
the first string stops at the first comma, and the second string stops at the

end of the line. Strings which contain whitespace should be quoted. The
|
string comparison is case sensitive.
