Re: gEDA-user: conditional assign gets compile error

[Matthew Ballance <ballance@ballance.dhs.org>]

Actually, according to the 2001 standard, 64'dz is valid...

decimal_number ::=
    | unsigned_number
    | [size] decimal_base unsigned_number
    | [size] decimal_base x_digit {_}
    | [size] decimal_base z_digit {_}

So, 64'dz would be [size] decimal_base z_digit.
