Hello,

I just implemented macro expansion in imcc.
This brings us one step closer to substitude assemble.pl
I'd half-wondered if this would ever come up.

Back in the beginning we decided that, while the assembler would
support macros (over some disagreement) since it was an end-user tool
and end users might use macros, any internal assembler wouldn't since
it was meant to be a quick and simple thing. I'd planned on keeping
that, but seeing as how we're going to have languages as complex as
perl built in, I'm not sure there's much reason to maintain the
disparity.

I would like, once this gets to get the macro system fully defined
and documented, though.
