btw.. I get this error when I try and assemble ANY program that uses
equates for memory addresses, even simple little ones like

.nolist
#include "ti83plus.inc"
var1              equ           $86ce
var2              equ           var1+1
.org 9d95
  ld a,(var2)
  ret
.end
END

When I try and assemble this, I get the same error at the line with ld
a,(var2).
