Code:

macro foo {
rept 4 n:0 \{ P#n equ 'hello' \}
}
foo
display P0,13,10

Should the above code print 'hello'? I got an error Sad

You forgot to escape the # operator. "P#n" becomes "Pn", while "P\#n" will do what you wanted.

Good day Assemblers,
Can you give me an example how to use rept in a case like below:

Code:

   img1 FILE 'img1.ico':22 
      img2 FILE 'img2.ico':22 
      img3 FILE 'img3.ico':22 
      img4 FILE 'img4.ico':22 
      img5 FILE 'img5.ico':22 
      img6 FILE 'img6.ico':22 
      img7 FILE 'img7.ico':22

I think this:

Code:

rept 7 x { img#x FILE 'img'#`x#'.ico':22 }

Yes it's working fine.
Now inside a macro how to use \ ?

Code:

   
     macro ImgData {
        rept 7 x \{ 
           img\#x FILE 'img'#`x#'.ico':22      ; error
           \}
        }

p.s thanks revolution

Just escape all the operators # and `.

Code:

   
     macro ImgData {
        rept 7 x \{ 
           img\#x FILE 'img'\#\`x\#'.ico':22      ; error
           \}
        }
