Testing the assembler

Since the TC1 assembler can deal with several typographic features (e.g., uppercase or lowercase and multiple spaces), a simple way of testing the assembler is to give it a file to assemble that includes various conditions, such as multiple spaces, equates, and uppercase and lowercase conversion. My initial test source code was as follows:

     NOP
 BRA eee
      INC r4
alan inc r5
eee    STOP
aa NOP @comment2
bb NOP     1
      LDRL      r0,   12
      LDRL r3,0x123 @ comment1
      LDRL r7,     0xFF
      INC R2
  BRA last
test1     EQU    999
  @comment3
@comment4
  @ qqq EQU 7
