+# Null-terminated vs length-prefixed ascii strings.
+#
+# By default we create strings with a 4-byte length prefix rather than a null suffix.
+# However we still need null-prefixed strings when interacting with the Linux
+# kernel in a few places. This layer implements a function for comparing
+# a null-terminated 'kernel string' with a length-prefixed 'SubX string'.
+#
+# To run (from the subx directory):
+#   $ ./subx translate examples/ex11.subx -o examples/ex11
+#   $ ./subx run examples/ex11  # runs a series of tests
+#   ......  # all tests pass
+#
+# (We can't yet run the tests when given a "test" commandline argument,
+# because checking for it would require the function being tested! Breakage
+# would cause tests to not run, rather than to fail as we'd like.)
