# Example showing arg order on the stack.
#
# Show difference between ascii codes of first letter of first arg and first
# letter of second arg.
#
# To run:
# $ bootstrap/bootstrap translate ex9.subx -o ex9
# $ bootstrap/bootstrap run ex9 z x
# Expected result:
# $ echo $?
# 2
#
# At the start of a SubX program:
# argc: *esp
# argv[0]: *(esp+4)
# argv[1]: *(esp+8)
# ...
# Locals start from esp-4 downwards.
