linuxcnc 2.8.0 - error on subroutine call

The following program errors with a 'near line 11 ... bad charactor 'o' used'. If I substitute the subroutine call with a simple increment it loads without error.
My question is in this case what is the correct syntax to create and to call the subroutine. Is there an issue with #1 being incremented within the subroutine? Must it be incremented outside of the subroutine?
Thanks, Dan

The problem seemed to be incrementing #1 within the subroutine. When the increment was moved outside the subroutine then it worked.

At a guess the issue was
o1 ; Main program 1
Which is an O-word with no SUB or IF etc.
(And it was never closed)
