@item macdef @var{macro-name}
Define a macro called @var{macro-name}, with subsequent lines as the
macro definition. A null line (consecutive newline characters in a
file, or carriage returns from the terminal) terminates macro input
file, or carriage returns at a terminal) terminates macro input
mode. There is a limit of 16 macros and a total of 4096 characters
in all defined macros.
shared by all defined macros. Only the first eight characters in
@var{macro-name} are significant when determining which
macro to execute.
Macros remain defined until a close command is executed.
The macro processor interprets @samp{$} and @samp{\} as
special characters. A @samp{$} followed by a number (or numbers) is
replaced by the corresponding argument on the macro invocation command
line.
special characters. A @samp{$} followed by a number (one or more
digits) is replaced by the corresponding argument on the macro's
invocation command line.
A @samp{$} followed by the letter @samp{i} tells the macro processor
that the macro is to perform a loop.
On the first pass @samp{$i}
is replaced by the first argument on the macro invocation command
line, on the second pass it is replaced by the second argument, and so
on. A @samp{\} followed by any character is replaced by that
character. Use the @samp{\} to prevent special treatment of the
@samp{$}.
On the first pass, @samp{$i} is replaced by the first argument on
the macro's invocation command line, while on the second pass it is
replaced by the second argument, and so forth.
Iteration proceeds until all arguments have been consumed.
A backslash @samp{\} followed by any character is replaced by that
character. Use the backslash @samp{\} to prevent special treatment
of the dollar sign @samp{$}, as was just explained.
@item mdelete [@var{remote-files}]
Delete all @var{remote-files} on the remote machine.
