  Syntax:  .STACK [size]
 
  Defines the program stack segment (STACK) and ends previous segment,
  if any. The .MODEL directive must have previously been used. You
  should generally not place any code or data in this segment; the
  processor uses the stack segment to store data during procedure and
  interrupt calls.
 
  The .MODEL directive generates a GROUP statement that places the STACK
  segment in DGROUP, unless the farStack attribute is given.
 
  size   Optional; specifies size of the stack in bytes. If none is
         given, the default is 1024.
