I have an XEDIT macro that operates as a prefix command. It turns specified
lines into comments. It has the ability to turn blocks of lines into comments,
as well. Here is an example using a snippet of code from SMTPNOTE EXEC:
Before - note the asterisks in the prefix area. That is the synonym I use.
00059 imp =''
*0060 fix =''
00061 enrich=''
0*062 nofill=''
00063 su = ''
00** da = ''
00065 debug = 0
00066 batch = ''
00067 parms = translate(parms,'7C'x,'õ'); /* transl. at sign 98/11/10 RT */
00068 i = 1 /* get number of parms. */
**069 j = words(parms) /* get number of parms. */
After
00059 imp =''
00060 /*fix ='' */
00061 enrich=''
00062 /*nofill='' */
00063 su = ''
00064 /*da = '' */
00065 /*debug = 0 */
00066 /*batch = '' */
00067 /*parms = translate(parms,'7C'x,'õ'); /* transl. at sign 98/11/10 RT
*/ */
00068 /*i = 1 /* get number of parms. */
*/
00069 /*j = words(parms) /* get number of parms. */
*/
Is this thee type of macro you seek?
