option
Executed in script order. Multiple occurences possible
SetPage struc = STRUCT(..., SetPage=n) to set value-page n in struc as in the example above
GetPage STRUCT(STruc=struc, GetPage=m) retrieves the data of struc, page m
Bytes struc = STRUCT(..., Bytes=len) on return variable len has the byte count of struc
data_type type
all POINTERS take up 4 bytes in STRUC
