Ah! I obviously didn't pay enough attention. Looking now at your original post, you did indeed define the macro without the dot, so obviously you would not find a macro that started with a dot. Doh! Johnny On 2016-02-05 23:38, Will Senn wrote: I should have been more clear. I was

All, A couple of questions: 1. Do any of y'all know where there is a working example of an assembly language program that includes a user defined macro in a library file? 2. Can you tell me what I'm doing wrong with this simple macro example? Here's what I tried (that didn't work) after

Try the obvious: lib/mac/list tin.mlb I don't remember exactly, but I think there's a /detail or /names or /list=names that will list the macro names in the library. That will at least determine if MAC *should* find the macro. On 05-Feb-16 13:05, Will Senn wrote: > > > On 2/5/16 10:20 AM, Paul

He provided the listing in the original post. He had one error on .MCALL line, and one on the .TIN line U on .MCALL, and UQ on .TIN, if I remember right. I also find it extremely strange that it would not be possible to start a user defined macro with '.', but if it works without, that's a

Too many loose ends to declare victory. The RT-11 librarian doesn't have a list command for macros; they were second class citizens. It's available on other DEC OS's librians, so I must have crossed a memory. Names with a '.' or '$' are reserved to DEC. But I don't think this should impact
