The syntax of that program was that required by EDTASM+. If you are
using a different assembler, you will need to alter the pseudo opcodes
to match whatever your assembler requires.
More to the point, do you understand what the program is trying to do?
If you don't, I can see the confusion. I wanted the source code to work
with both DOS 1.0 and DOS 1.1. For that to happen, you need to select
the DOS on your system by adjusting the statement
VERSON EQU 11
The 11 means DOS1.1. Change the statement to
VERSON EQU 10
and DOS1.0 is indicated. The program will assemble using the required
statements inside the conditional statements.
