I already have several internal macros where I use PUSH PRINT, PRINT NOMCALL, and PULL PRINT. They are very handy.
I do have several 'heavy duty' macros that I wrote and maintain, so neither writing more macros nor using more macros scare me. But, to be honest, the current IF (and related) macros actually make reading someone else's code, or debugging it, harder. Macros should make coding simpler. These do just the opposite. In other words, I don't like them. Tony Thigpen -----Original Message ----- From: Adam L Johanson Sent: 12/04/2013 05:27 PM
Well, sure, but all the ugly generated labels and such are there when you have to read the listing rather than the source.Tony, I think you might also be referring to all of the inner macro calls that show up in the listing and can be not-so-easy on the eyes. If so, have a look at the PCONTROL(NOMCALL) Assembler option. It might be more far-reaching than what you're looking for since it'll suppress all of the inner macro calls, but the option can also be turned off and on via PRINT MCALL and PRINT NOMCALL that should probably be inside a PUSH/POP sequence.
