    Running GoAsm 64-bit.
    Swh12  dd  0
    mov rcx,[Swh12]
   
    The compiler did not catch this
    Swh12 should be defined
    Swh12  dq  0
   
    Thought you might want to know

That is explained in the manual: Why GoAsm does not type or parameter check.

Thank you Yuri for replying.
I stand corrected.
Will in the future have to be more careful about sizes of
items I use. It is sure hard to find your own errors like
the one I made. But now I will be on the lookout for
this kind of error.

I use prefixes to remind myself of variables' sizes. wMyVar, dwMyVar, qwMyVar — word, double word and quad word respectively.
