Can't @sleep

[MOUNTAIN747]

I thought I had this figured out, famous last words! Returning to a project after being side tracked for six months I find that the @sleep command was never working. 12F683 set up with GP2 ext interrupt to wake from sleep. Test code for @sleep instruction uses LED to monitor sleep state. MCLR is set to off. There is a line in the data sheet that says that if Watchdog Timer is enabled, MCLR pin must be at a logic high, I am turning off WDT before @sleep. I can’t find the problem. Comments please…

There should be white space (space or tab) between the @ and sleep. Same with nop.

@  sleep

I found a statement in the data sheet that addresses WDT under software control. I have now turned off WDT in the config to use SWDTEN bit properly. Still no luck. No rest for the weary.

Thanks Darrel,
Space did the trick. I'm up and running.
