Forgive me if this issue has been beaten to death, but I can't seem to get past it, and I've pored over old posts trying to get it straight.

The 16F1827 device, is apparently not directly supported by the PBP assembler, so I am forced to select "MPASM"as the assembler, otherwise the program won't compile.

My assumption is that MPASM would "like" the "ASM/ENDASM" config syntax in the Blinky program below.

As you can see, just the two lines of config (straight from the .inc file) generates two "overwriting" errors.

If I comment the ASM/ENDASM lines out, and enable the rest of the lines, no errors occur and the LED blinks fine.

Help me understand, please, when this ASM/ENDASM fuse config syntax would be appropriate, and when it would not.
