This usually means that a command in your KSC file is longer than the
command buffer. Note that a macro definition is a single command, even if
it is continued on many lines. The limit in Kermit 95 is 4K. If you have
a macro definition that is longer than 4K, you'll need to break it up into
"submacros". The same applies to FOR and WHILE loops, XIF-ELSE
constructions, and SWITCH statements.
