I found the bug that is causing this and fixed it. The parser can't handle
equates where the value follows the equals sign with no space in between,
such as the ones defining the keys in the asm86.h file.
For now, to work around this, put a space after the equals sign for every
equate.

You can do this.

Don't know quite what you mean.
