; PackTable definition:
;
; The PackTable is a simple array of LONGWORDS that are then evaluated
; by PackStructureTags and UnpackStructureTags.
;
; The table contains compressed information such as the tag offset from
; the base tag. The tag offset has a limited range so the base tag is
; defined in the first longword.
;
; After the first longword, the fields look as follows:
;
; +--------- 1 = signed, 0 = unsigned (for bits, 1=inverted boolean)
; |
; | +------ 00 = Pack/Unpack, 10 = Pack, 01 = Unpack, 11 = special
; | / \
; | | | +-- 00 = Byte, 01 = Word, 10 = Long, 11 = Bit
; | | | / \
; | | | | | /----- For bit operations: 1 = TAG_EXISTS is TRUE
; | | | | | |
; | | | | | | /-------------------- Tag offset from base tag value
; | | | | | | | \

; \ | | |
; Bit offset (for bit operations) ----/ | |
; \ |
; Offset into data structure -----------------------------------/
;
; A -1 longword signifies that the next longword will be a new base tag
;
; A 0 longword signifies that it is the end of the pack table.
;
; What this implies is that there are only 13-bits of address offset
; and 10 bits for tag offsets from the base tag. For most uses this
; should be enough, but when this is not, either multiple pack tables
; or a pack table with extra base tags would be able to do the trick.
; The goal here was to make the tables small and yet flexible enough to
; handle most cases.
