A Final Version of PUTC Using System Qualifiers

This document discusses improving the PUTC macro to use system qualifiers to avoid naming collisions between different macro expansions. The improved macro prepends a $ symbol followed by an increasing letter to reserved symbols and labels for each expansion. For this example, the fourth expansion uses symbols and labels starting with $AE.

A Final Version of PUTC using System Qualifiers

Revisiting the PUTC macro using system qualifiers, an "even


better" construction might be:

MACRO
&INIT PUTC &CHAR, &DEV
&INIT STA $SAVE
LDCH &CHAR
J $LOOP
$SAVE RESW 1
$LOOP TD &DEV
JEQ $LOOP
WD &DEV
LDA $SAVE
MEND

This time, if 4 prior macro expansions have occurred, not


necessarily to PUTC and not necessarily using the $ system
qualifier, the $ system qualifier has been advanced through $AA,
$AB, $AC, and $AD, so for this expansion the code will be

. . .

JEQ NEXT
.DUMPX PUTC (LINE,X), =X'04'
DUMPX STA $AESAVE
LDCH LINE,X
J $AELOOP
$AESAVE RESW 1
$AELOOP TD =X'04'
JEQ $AELOOP
WD =X'04'
LDA $AESAVE
NEXT STA LAST

⇒ Each macro expansion gets its own $ system qualifier,


whether or not it uses the $ system qualifier.
