I use the ACONTROL approach just so it's clear why I'm doing it. (It's easy with a macro.) But it makes me wonder if anyone is concerned with "4 lines in the listing instead of 1"? Or a blank line vs. SPACE vs. ASPACE in a macro, etc.? Does anyone print listings anymore? I don't, so I also don't worry about PRINT (NO)GEN and just specify PC(ON,GEN) at assembly time. - mb
