[M3commit] tint

[Jay]

Oh, oops, sorry, I thought it was zero filled, not last value filled.
I had looked that up within the past few weeks/months but misremembered it.

I'm not sure what you mean.  The initializers in TInt.i3 *are* correct for any 2s-complement representation of one byte or more.  Thus, if someone was to change the representation as defined in Target they would *not* need changing in TInt.i3.  ".." is perfectly well-defined syntax to indicate continue with (in this case) the high-order bits exactly as they are ...

Tony, it is definitely confusing to claim the array has NUMBER(x) elements, and then initialize only some of them "correctly".Trailing zeros I can see as maybe clear for positive values, but definitely confusing for negative values. - Jay
