I was wondering why when I compile a prog I made, there's an error like :

" add.b #1,a0"
          ^
           L wrong size operand.

Because when I read any guide about 68k asm, it's written that the length of
the data can be :
a byte, a word, a longword.

I really don't see why. Does anyone have an explanation ?
I just want to know, because when I replace my ".b" by a ".w" everything
goes well, and  I could just do like this each time, but I would really like
to understand.

Thanks.
