Typically, this is caused by an illegal number of file names, or patterns are
illegally used. For example, two file names may appear on the left side of
the COPY command.
31:
SYNTAX ERROR (invalid command)
The DOS does not recognize the command. The command must start in
the first position.
32:
SYNTAX ERROR (long line)
The command sent is longer than 58 characters.
33:
SYNTAX ERROR (invalid file name)
Pattern matching is invalidly used in the OPEN or SAVE command.
34:
SYNTAX ERROR (no file given)
The file name was left out of a command or the DOS does not recognize it
as such. Typically, a colon (:) has been left out of the command.

SYNTAX ERROR (invalid command)
This error may result if the command sent to command channel
(secondary address 15) is unrecognizable by the DOS.
50:
RECORD NOT PRESENT
Result of disk reading past the last record through INPUT#, or GET#
commands. This message will also occur after positioning to a record be
yond end of file in a relative file. If the intent is to expand the file by
adding the new record (with a PRINT# command), the error message may
be ignored. INPUT or GET should not be attempted after this error is
detected without first repositioning.
51:
OVERFLOW IN RECORD
PRINT# statement exceeds record boundary. Information is truncated.
Since the carriage return which is sent as a record terminator is counted in
the record size, this message will occur if the total characters in the record
(including the final carriage return) exceeds the defined size.
52:
FILE TOO LARGE
Record position within a relative file indicates that disk overflow will
result.
60:
WRITE FILE OPEN
This message is generated when a write file that has nQt been closed is
being opened for reading.
