DECLARE [SYSTEM] FUNCTION name AT address [ ( par1 [, par2 [, ... ] ] ) ] RETURN ret [ ON targets ]

The DECLARE FUNCTION is a way to define and call external procedures written in machine language and to insert assembly into the sources. The procedures defined in this way can be called as if they were an integral part of the language, and any result value can be retrieved by calling it as a function:

'''value = test[]'''
