This doesn't work for me:
Code: macro show par {display `par} show [hello] |

Each symbol needs its own backtick (`)
Code: macro show par { irps p,par \{ display \`p \} } show [hello] |

There are three symbols "[", "hello", and "]".
Using irps isn't a workaround it is a requirement to apply ` to each symbol. Otherwise only the first symbol is converted to a string and the final two symbols can't be displayed as they are. I moved to "main" because this isn't about the internal details of the assembler, but rather it is about writing the code it assembles. |

I thought the symbol was the argument name.
This problem comes from passing values by reference to functions, such as [PointerToX], and trying to display them inside macro calls for debugging. [PointerToX] is a single parameter, like ValueX, so should be a single symbol to be converted to string, correct? |

A parameter is not a symbol. They are different.
Macro parameters are separated by commas (,). Symbols are any run of characters separated by: Code: symbol_characters db 27 db 9,0Ah,0Dh,1Ah,20h,'+-/*=<>()[]{}:,|&~#`;\' |
