Example
The example below shows an integer parameter being halved.
move.w CA_GTINT,A2 ; CA_GTINT vector address.
jsr (a2) ; Put the parameter on the maths stack.
bne.s Error_handler ; Oops!
asr (a1,a6.l) ; Halve the parameter.
movea.w BP_LET,(a2) ; BP_LET vector address.
jsr (a2) ; Put the new value from the maths stack.
bne.s Error_handler ; Oops!
