Abstract :
The feasibility of using macros to compile a linear assembly language is well established. A cross assembler has been implemented, via macros, for an assembly language, SCRAM, which embodies high-level language features such as user-controlled symbol scope and nested DO and IF/THEN/ELSE control structutes. Difficulties arose in implementation primarily from the inconvenience of managing assembly-time data
