        !            21: (1, 2, or 4) to be assembled for offsets
        !            22: which involve forward or external references, and which have sizes unspecified
        !            23: in the assembly language.

        !            30: which are normally discarded
        !            31: to save space in the resultant symbol table.
        !            32: The compilers generate such temporary labels.

        !            35: Use virtual memory for intermediate storage, rather than a temporary file.

        !            42: insufficient.  This must be used when a compiler-generated assembly contains
        !            43: branches of more than 32K bytes.
        !            44: .TP

        !            48: This obviates the need to run editor scripts on assembly
