Help....

I am receiving a syntax error when I try to compile the hello world program or any program I create. I can complile the .tpl files that came with the developer kit.

Here is the reported error:

helloworld.tpl(1) : error 19 : column 13 : Syntax error

Here is the source code:

PROC main:
PRINT "Hello World"
PAUSE 40
ENDP

The editor I was using was saving the file as a Unix type file (bad line endings).

For reference, the PC translator uses ASCII plain text files.
