Re: Sections and section types

Ron,
I too have received a lot of help from Leon and Elizabeth.
Unfortunately it often does not sink in very quickly. I think much of
the section confusion comes from what things are called. I was guided
by the titles in the .Allocation header bar, and by section I meant the
Name in

3500 3FFF TYPE SECTION NAME

And by section type I meant UDATA, CDATA, or IDATA.

I see that my simplication needs a qualification: code is always
written to the location defined by the last section name called that had
type CDATA, and data is written to the location defined by the last
section type called, which is in turn defined by the last section name
of that type called, except for definitions that are restricted to
specific section types.

I'm not sure that is any clearer than the SwiftX documentation, but at
least I am clearer now (I hope!).
