Parrot assembly supports inline strings, but are there any plans to have it support a distinct .string (or similar) asm section? The main benefit would be easier compatibility/portability with existing assembly code generators. Is anybody aware of an existing assembly format that doesn't support a separate string section?
You can use the .constant (PASM) or .const (IMCC) syntax, to keep strings visually together.
