+//: Loading programs into the VM. 
+
+:(scenario add_imm32_to_eax)
+# At the lowest level, SubX programs are a series of hex bytes, each
+# (variable-length) instruction on one line.
+#
+# Later we'll make things nicer using macros. But you'll always be able to
+# insert hex bytes out of instructions.
+#
+# As you can see, comments start with '#' and are ignored.
+
+# Segment headers start with '==', specifying the hex address where they
+# begin. The first segment is always assumed to be code.
+== 0x1
+
+# We don't show it here, but all lines can have metadata after a ':'.
+# All words can have metadata after a '/'. No spaces allowed in word metadata, of course.
+# Metadata doesn't directly form instructions, but some macros may look at it.
+# Unrecognized metadata never causes errors, so you can also use it for
+# documentation.
+
+# Within the code segment, x86 instructions consist of the following parts (see cheatsheet.pdf):
+#   opcode        ModR/M                    SIB                   displacement    immediate
+#   instruction   mod, reg, Reg/Mem bits    scale, index, base
+#   1-3 bytes     0/1 byte                  0/1 byte              0/1/2/4 bytes   0/1/2/4 bytes
+    05                                                                            0a 0b 0c 0d  # add 0x0d0c0b0a to EAX
+
+# This program, when run, causes the following events in the trace:
++load: 0x00000001 -> 05
++load: 0x00000002 -> 0a
++load: 0x00000003 -> 0b
++load: 0x00000004 -> 0c
++load: 0x00000005 -> 0d
++run: add imm32 0x0d0c0b0a to reg EAX
++run: storing 0x0d0c0b0a
