The documentation that I have says that backslash(\) is the line continuation character.
I would assume that if that is the case then I should be able to do the following:
mov eax, \
prompt1
But I get an expression syntax error!
Any suggestions?

Works fine for me. Is the '\' the *very* last thing on the line? Spaces or tabs after it won't work.
Best,
Frank

Ensure that the backslash is the last
character on its line, i.e. that it is
not followed by whitespaces or tabs.
-
It is the last thing on the line not counting the newline character.
I am running on Linux use ELF with i686 architecture. Other suggestions?
