Move multiple defintion problem about customasm HOT 5 CLOSED

For now, I don't think so(?), so the best way would just be to use 0b0000_0000, and just remember which bit is which reg which isn't too hard.

Yes, it's not too bad. Hopefully it'll support this kind of thing soon.

I guess I could feed my assembly through CPP and use some macros.

One way you could do this is by defining the registers as constants and then asking for an integer as the register list.

R0 = 1
R1 = 2
R2 = 4
R3 = 8
R4 = 16
R5 = 32
R6 = 64
R7 = 128

#cpudef "test"
{
    #bits 8
    
    #tokendef REG
    {
        r0 = 1
        r1 = 2
        r2 = 4
        r3 = 8
        r4 = 16
        r5 = 32
        r6 = 64
        r7 = 128
    }
    
    popmulti {register_list: u8}, ( {ea: REG} ) -> 0xABCD @ register_list @ ea[7:0]

}

This way popmulti R0+R1+R3+R4+R5+R6,(r7) becomes 0xABCD7B80.

You can also define the constants in lowercase and it would work fine in most cases, but if you've got an instruction with the same mnemonic and multiple addressing modes (like if both mov r0, r3 and mov r0, 123 are legal) you should keep them uppercase or the assembler will get confused.
Also, if you don't need your instruction to use the + sign and you are willing to be more flexible, you could do stuff like
popmulti ALL_REGS - R3, (r7) (with ALL_REGS = 0xFF) or typing the registers out of order. However, I would recommend using the | sign instead of +, in case you accidentally type a register twice (popmulti R1 + R1, (r7) gets interpreted as R2 since 2+2=4, popmulti R1 | R1, (r7) gets reduced to just R1 since 2|2=2).

That works well, thanks! Much easier then bringing out CPP. Using an or to bring them together seems the sensible approach.

I'm not sure if there's a general solution to this case.

Man, I might have a reason to learn Rust now.

I'm closing this since it can be achieve like p-rivero suggested or with recursive rules in newer versions! Feel free to open this issue again if you still need help.
