I've been re-reading the Scout SDK and came across the following:
"Program Block Library (subroutines)
The Scout has an extensive subroutine library of general-purpose
functions that can help reduce the size of downloaded user
programs. Many of the subroutines expect parameters to be passed in
local variables as outlined below.
The built-in subroutines are numbered 3-32 whereas user subroutines are
numbered 0-2."
I haven't seen any mention of these in NQC? Is is supported?
I wrote my first Scout program today. I had to lop off 1 command because
I ran out of memory. It's not a very big program. So I consider the
above essential if we are to use the whopping 1k or RAM. (How much do we
get for code?)

| (...) In the old Scout API there were two calls: #define local(n) (@((n) + 10)) void Call(const int n) { asm { 0x17, n }; } You can enable the API by adding -D__SCOUT_COMPAT on the command line, or just copy the above two lines into your program.
