If continuation is specified,
it indicates how line numbering should begin relative to the
immediately preceding address.
Restarts, the default, indicates that numbering should begin
again at 1. Continues indicates that numbering should begin
where the preceding element left off.
The format attribute applies the
linespecific notation to all addresses.
All white space and line breaks must be preserved.
![[4.0]](figures/rev_4.0.png)
Line numbering indicates whether or not the lines
of an Address are to be automatically numbered. The details
of numbering (every line or only selected lines, on the left or right, etc.)
are left up to the processing application. Be aware that not all processors
are capable of numbering lines.
