|sub-opcode||An aux opcode that indicates a specific function to perform (e.g. the "wait" instruction has sub-opcodes to "wait for message", "wait for actor" etc), as well as storing parameter bits if necessary.

|value[v16]||A variable number of word LE parameters. These are encoded as a sequence of aux[8] param[p16]; param; aux contains the parameter bit to describe param. A byte of $FF terminates the sequence. (actually always shown as "value[v16]...")
|value[v16]||A variable number of word LE parameters. These are encoded as a sequence of aux[8] param[p16]; param; aux contains the parameter bit to describe param (and is always $01, ignoring the parameter bits). A byte of $FF terminates the sequence. (actually always shown as "value[v16]...")
|-
|-
|value[o]||The offset word for parameter value. This is only encoded if needed, but always at the position indicated. If not specified, the offset word occurs immediately after the parameter.
