Pre set all bits

I am working on migrating some of my objects to spin2. I noticed that ~~ (pre) is no in spin2. I don't see anything that may have replaced it. Did i miss something or is it gone ?

    ~~x in Spin1 is sign extend from bit 15.
    Use X SIGNX 15 instead.

    From Chip's early document on Spin2 
    ZEROX		var ZEROX= x	17		x ZEROX y	3		binary		Zero-extend above bit y
SIGNX		var SIGNX= x	17		x SIGNX y	3		binary		Sign-extend from bit y

    I thought Greg was talking about x~~ and not ~~x where x~~ is preset to all ones.
    But I guess I was wrong :)
