allows a value assignment to the next two bytes pointed
to by the current Instruction Pointer. The format is:
<PRE>&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp; [<I>label</I>] .WORD <I>expr</I> [,<I>expr</I>...]</PRE>
The least significant byte of expr is put at the current Instruction Pointer
with the most significant byte at the next sequential location (unless
the MSFIRST directive has been invoked). Here are some examples:
<PRE>&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp; data_table&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp; .WORD&nbsp;&nbsp; (data_table + 1)
