are optional, though they are shown here and their use is encouraged. Directives
may be preceeded by a label; the label is defined before the directive is executed.

Start an absolute section, beginning with the specified location (or zero, if
no location is specified). An absolute section is much like BSS, except that
locations declared with .ds are based absolute. This directive is useful for

declaring structures or hardware locations.

* All optimisations are turned off for any source line that has an exclamation mark
(*!*) on their first column.
- * Optimisation switches 0, 1 and 2 are turned on by default for legacy reasons.
+ * Optimisation switch 11 is turned on by default for compatibility with the
+ Motorola reference 56001 DSP assembler.
All other levels are off by default. (refer to section `The Command Line`_
for a description of all the switches).
* Optimisation warnings are off by default. Invoke RMAC with the *-s* switch to
turn on warnings in console and listing output.
- * In DSP56001 mode size optimisations are on by default. Currently there is no
- way to disable this behaviour.

* In GPU/DSP code sections, you can use JUMP (Rx) in place of JUMP T, (Rx) and JR
(Rx) in place of JR T,(Rx).
