| |
| <p><a name="index-internal-assembler-sections-202"></a><a name="index-sections-in-messages_002c-internal-203"></a>These sections are meant only for the internal use of <samp><span class="command">as</span></samp>. They |
| have no meaning at run-time. You do not really need to know about these |
| sections for most purposes; but they can be mentioned in <samp><span class="command">as</span></samp> |
| warning messages, so it might be helpful to have an idea of their |
| meanings to <samp><span class="command">as</span></samp>. These sections are used to permit the |
| value of every expression in your assembly language program to be a |
| section-relative address. |

| <dl><dt><b>ASSEMBLER-INTERNAL-LOGIC-ERROR!</b><dd>An internal assembler logic error has been found. This means there is a |
| bug in the assembler. |
| |
| <p><a name="index-expr-_0028internal-section_0029-205"></a><br><dt><b>expr section</b><dd>The assembler stores complex expression internally as combinations of |
| symbols. When it needs to represent an expression as a symbol, it puts |
| it in the expr section. |
