### Text Equate Name

A Text-EquateName is a globally-scoped identifier created during the processing of a EQU preprocessor directive. A Text-EquateName is associated with a body of text whose content may not span across line breaks. In certain contexts the assembler replaces the Text-EquateName with the text that it represents and recursively evaluates the result.
