Swee?
Sweye?
Ess Double-You Eye?
Software Interrupt?
Which one do you use? I have been saying Swee, but when speaking to people, usually say software interrupt. |

Sweye.
I pronounce (in my head, when reading code) the $ in BASIC as a 'zz' sound, as in CHR$ - churzz, STR$ - strurrz. |

Another vote for "sweye" - although I rarely get to *talk* to anyone about RISC OS programming ________ Cheers, Rich.

And CHR$ is quite clearly ChurString, SturString, etc. |

Sweye. Looks like it's time to change my ways. I used to think that "Sweye" was right when I first saw it used, but then I thought "nah" and changed the sound in my head to "swee".
I pronounce (in my head, when reading code) the $ in BASIC as a 'zz' sound, as in CHR$ - churzz, STR$ - strurrz. Me too, although didn't the original BBC User Guide say that A$ meant "A string"? |

I used to think that "Sweye" was right when I first saw it used, but then I thought "nah" and changed the sound in my head to "swee" I've always called it "swee". I was shocked when I first heard it called "sweye" by a friend. Now I just call it "Software Interrupt". |

'sweye' or, rather prosaically, 'ess double-u eye', depending upon which way the wind is blowing

Me too, although didn't the original BBC User Guide say that A$ meant "A string"? Did it? That's quite funny.
Of course, I always use I$ for quick temporary strings, never A$. And I or I% for loops too. |

I've always said pling... I say pling, but in my head I make a mnoop sound. This comes from typing in games from The Micro User where you had hundreds of lines like this:
4070 DATA AFE!8373!!@B7I_3!!!BABA!AFE!8373!!@B7I_3!!!BABA! |

'bang' is, I think, an Americanism (according to the Jargon file entry on Commonwealth Hackish). But that said, I still use it from time to time, as follows. !Boot == PlingBoot, (!fred) == notfred, 'Silly!' == Silly Bang. The Jargon file reports other common names for '!' as shreik (which I've heard) and ball-bat (which I've not). Anyone remember what Victor Borge used for '!' in his Phonetic Punctuation routine?
Other than that, sweye, chrString (stringString). |

I've always called it "swee". I was shocked when I first heard it called "sweye" by a friend. Now I just call it "Software Interrupt". I was a bit shocked too when I first heard "sweye" - I thought it sounded way too posh. |

I was a bit shocked too when I first heard "sweye" - I thought it sounded way too posh. I don't understand this - it has an I in it. Surely it's going to be pronounced sweye - as in "Hi-de-hi"? |

Is no one going to point out that technically they weren't on horseback? No. I will, however, point out that there's no "technically" about it. The Knights Who Say <insert unutterable here>, are three-headed and stand in a forest. They also have a shrubbery fetish. |

puts down the XScale datasheet /me wants one All the relevant datasheets are freely available on Intel's site - try browsing around from the following URL:
http://www.intel.com/design/iio/docs/iop321.htm
I don't have a paper copy, if that's what you thought. I still use the ARM610 datasheet for checking instruction encodings and the like. |
