I went with simple...
#pragma reserve start [end]
where [end] is assumed to be start if not specified. If you want to
reserve multiple vars (or multiple ranges) you need to use multiple
#pragmas.

Yes, its all a bit academic. The only immediately obvious use is to
tell nqc not to use the bottom 1 or 2 locations for vars if you plan on
using counters. I don't see the #pragma being used for much else, so
I'm not putting a lot of effort into implementation.
The only reason I'm not restricting it to counters-only is that perhaps
someone will come up with a good reason to reserve certain var
locations. You could still access them with the proper @() expressions
and set them with the Set() function.

| (...) How about: #pragma reserve 1 3 5-8 9 with range explicitly specified by "-". Then those that want to specify a range can do so and those who want to specify a list can do so. Of course this assumes that you don't allow arithmetic in the pragma (...) (24 years ago, 2-Jun-00, to lugnet.robotics.rcx.nqc)
