Syntax:

PLEN

 <n>

Description:

Sets the page length to <n> lines. <n> may range from 10 to
10,000. If the number of lines already listed on the current page
is greater than or equal to <n>, listing will continue on the next
page with the new page length setting. The default page length
is 65 lines.

Syntax:

<name>:

SECTION [SHORT]

[<number>]

Description:

This directive declares a relocatable section and initializes the
location counter for the following code. The first

SECTION

directive for a section sets the location counter to 0. Subsequent

SECTION

 directives for that section restore the location

counter to the value that follows the address of the last code in
the section.

<name> is the name assigned to the section. Two

SECTION

directives, where the same name is specified, refer to the same
section.

<number> is optional and only specified for compatibility with
the MASM assembler.

A section is a code section if it contains at least an assembly
instruction. It is considered to be a constant section if it
contains only

DC

or

DCB

directives. A section is considered to

be a data section if it contains at least a

DS

 directive or if it is

empty.
