gollark: It doesn't.
gollark: Unfortunately, few syntax highlighting libraries support that.
gollark: Actually, why not be more x86-64 and make your integers be `SYSCALL whatever` instead?
gollark: But it makes the syntax highlighting mildly confusing.
gollark: Maybe call it INTEGER or INTEGRAL instead.
