macros too limited

Description (Last modified by peter@tortall.net) 

You cannot concatenate macro arguments like this :

%assign x 0
%rep 8
movd eax,mm(value of x)
push eax
%assign x x+1
%rep

I tried with {, %, %%, labels... I cannot succeed.

Bill's asm can do it and so it is *very* powerful.
I wrote lots of macros with that feature.
Why not invent a %# (or a %< or an extension of %%...) to give yasm real macro 
power...

It's all right : I found a way to write it, with alternate macros.
Not the easier, but acceptable.
