  I will prepare soonly a small video and examples that will show how you can use different types of parameters but just to explain, you can for example, use direct datas :
  You can use assembler data registers :
  You can use variables (locals to a procedure or global ones) :
  Or mix whatever you want to use :
  You must not forget that, the development langage you use when you develop a project under Grimoire is (...)
