If you don't have access to IBM's HLASM ToolKit Structured Programming Macros,
or if you have the requirement for more complex logic with an IF macro, then
this small, FREE package might well be the answer. Its IF macro is easy to
learn and is very powerful.

Assuming your programs use 20-bit displacements like ours do, then
you're really talking about 4K for areas that must be acces
rogram intact,
but J is not (see: "Goto Statement considered harmful"). The use of the
SP macros should lead
to programs that get rid of all branches.

This is exactly true. That being said, I don't know how structured programming
macros can be used for 100% of your code if you want to also use the minimum

Maybe for consistency ?
I've been using structured macro for a long time and I don't think that you'll
ever get rid of 'old style' code. But it still easier to read if as much as
possible is using IFs and DOs. At least I find it so.
