## Null-terminated vs length-prefixed ascii strings.
#
# By default we create strings with a 4-byte length prefix rather than a null suffix.
# However, commandline arguments come null-prefixed from the Linux kernel.
# This example shows a helper that can compare a commandline argument with the
# (length-prefixed) literal string "target".
#
# To run:
# $ subx translate ex11.subx ex11
# $ subx run 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.)
