This happens when there are more than 252 characters between the
(* and *) comment delimiters (if you add the four characters of the
delimiters, you will get a total of 256 comment characters--one
page of memory). So, if your source code has a large comment
section, it should be broken into smaller groups using the delimiters.
This is not a bug; it is just the way the compiler works. It picks up
characters, evaluates them (e.g., checks to see if they form a
reserved word or identifier), and picks up more characters for
evaluation if those can not be identified. When the total number of
characters being evaluated exceeds 256, up comes the error
message.
This matches the DOS 2.5 error 89 (truncated) and happens when there are more than 256 characters including EOL on one line. So, if your source code e. g. has a large comment section, it should be broken into smaller groups. This is not a bug; it is just the way the Atari 8-bit computer works. Its I/O is limited to a record length of 256 bytes.
