JA>In article <cPdf4.3607$KP.188008@tw12.nn.bcandid.com>,
JA>: With such a rich macro language it would be `nice' to be able to
JA>reuse : the available memory so that more complex macros could be
JA>written and : used while online without an `exit / reload' being
JA>required.
JA>There is and has been for years
JA>define foo echo hello
JA>allocates memory
JA>define foo
JA>undefines the macro and releases the memory. The limitation is
JA>that you can only have so many macros defined at a given time. It
JA>is the responsibility of the script write to undefine those that
JA>s/he does not need.
JA>: While I have your attention: I've been compiling and fiddling
JA>with the : WATTCP package which claims to have a part of it's code
JA>inside MSKermit.
JA>WATTCP and Kermit's TCP stack parted company many Moons ago. They
JA>are hardly compatible anymore.
