as: Setting Symbols

 
 5.2 Giving Symbols Other Values
 ===============================
 
 A symbol can be given an arbitrary value by writing a symbol, followed
 by an equals sign '=', followed by an expression (SeeExpressions).
 This is equivalent to using the '.set' directive.  See'.set' Set.
 In the same way, using a double equals sign '=''=' here represents an
 equivalent of the '.eqv' directive.  See'.eqv' Eqv.
 
    Blackfin does not support symbol assignment with '='.
