PARA             Align on 16-byte Boundary                         Align Type

  segname   SEGMENT   PARA

    Specifies that a segment is to begin at a memory address that is an
    exact multiple of 16, that is, the least significant hexadecimal digit
    is 0h (Also called a paragraph boundary).

       Notes:     The actual start address is not computed until the
                  program is actually loaded.  It is the Linker's
                  responsibility to insure that the correct memory
                  boundary is used.

                  If no align type is specified, PARA is the default
                  align type.
