I've decided to biteteh bullet, and actually write (rather than
just tweak someone else's) asm - the first time in about 8 years,
so be gentle, please.

Equ's, res directives, and db's etc. I'm happy with, _however_
I can't see in Paul Carter's otherwise excellent tutorial how
to access C's global variables.

e.g. I've got in my C code:

signed long long bigvals[256];
unsigned char hashcounts[16384];
unsigned char hashrecords[16384][4];

What would I need to insert in my .nasm files to get access to those?
(the hashrecords above can be viewed as unsigned int [16384] if that
simplifies things, it's how I'll treat it anyway).

Feeling rather dim presently,
Phil
