Hi all!

I'm gonna include data from some file. I need to know, is it possable to calculate including file size before compilation?

Code:

section '.xdata' data readable writeable
     FileSize dd ?     ; Here needs to be the size of 'file.pgr'!!!
     file 'file.pgr'      ; This file includes normal

file_size = $-file_begin
