SEGM Statement

The SEGM statement names and defines segments. For each child segment, the PARENT parameter specifies the name of the related parent segment. Note that the SEGM statement for SEGA (in Figure 7) specifies 0 (zero) for PARENT, indicating that this segment is the root (that is, it has no parent). The BYTES parameter specifies the length of each segment.
