When running this code: I see 0 for both values, so I assume these constants are basically the same. What's the purpose of the former, though? Nul with just one l isn't something I've seen anywhere else, although it probably exists.
Why not just have one constant though, #null?

NUL is historic as in the Ascii code and besides we also have #NULL$

Sure they both compile to value 0, but the difference is just semantics and code readability.

Personally I use #NUL for the character 0x00, #Null for pointers, and 0 for a numeric 0 such as a count.

Fair enough, it's just stylistic then. Thanks!
