Diagnostics
When syntactic errors occur, the assembler displays the line number and the name of the
file containing the error. If the errors are encountered in the first pass of the
assembler, the second pass is canceled and no object file is created.
Error messages have the following form:
***ERROR*** syntax error, line nnn
file: eee errors
where nnn is the line number(s) containing the error, file is the name of the file, and eee
is the total number of errors.
