CMDMAC | NOCMDMAC

Syntax Description

CMDMAC: specifies that the macro processor examine the first word of every window command to see whether it is a command-style macro invocation.
NOCMDMAC: specifies that no check will be made for command-style macro invocations.

Details

If the MAUTOSOURCE option is in effect, the macro processor searches the autocall libraries for the word. If you specify MAUTOSOURCE and CMDMAC, you can use computer resources more efficiently by specifying NOMRECALL, which causes the macro processor to search the autocall libraries only once for each keyword that begins a command.
