NAME

fbtstmac - interactive tool to validate syntax of FirstBase macro files

SYNOPSIS

fbtstmac

DESCRIPTION

Fbtstmac is a simple, interactive tool that allows the user to submit macro code to the macro parser to ensure the code is syntactically correct.

When invoked, fbtstmac responds with a fbtestmacro> prompt. The following is a list of commands that can be used at this point:


help           - general help
exit           - exit 
quit           - exit 
^D (EOF)       - exit 
cd             - change directory
pwd            - print working directory
ls             - list working directory
!command       - submit command to UNIX shell
filename       - submit file to macro parser

When a macro file parses correctly, the message "macro file parsed AOK" will be returned. Otherwise, a line numbered listing of the macro file and a display of the errors detected is shown.
