10.1 Chapter Overview

This chapter discusses the HLA compile time language. This discussion includes what is, perhaps, the most important component of the HLA compile time language, macros. Many people judge the power of an assembler by the power of its macro processing capabilities. If you happen to be one of these people, you'll probably agree that HLA is one of the more powerful assemblers on the planet after reading this chapter; HLA has one of the most powerful macro processing facilities of any computer language processing system.
