C64: Line Continuation occurred in <FileName>

[INFORMATION]

Description

In any environment file, the character '\' at the end of a line is taken as line continuation. This line and the next one are handles as one line only. Because the path separation character of MS-DOS is also '\', paths are often incorrectly written ending with '\'. Instead use a '.' after the last '\' to not finish a line with '\' unless you really want a line continuation.

Example

Current Default.env:

  ...
  LIBPATH=c:\Codewarrior\lib\
  OBJPATH=c:\Codewarrior\work
  ...

Is taken identical as

  ...
  LIBPATH=c:\Codewarrior\libOBJPATH=c:\Codewarrior\work
  ...

Tips

To fix it, append a '.' behind the '\'

  ...
  LIBPATH=c:\Codewarrior\lib\.
  OBJPATH=c:\Codewarrior\work
  ...

Note: Because this information occurs during the initialization phase of the application, the message prefix might not occur in the error message. So it might occur as "64: Line Continuation occurred in <FileName>".
