 - <a name="index-macros_002c-TIC54X"></a>
 - <p>Macros do not require explicit dereferencing of arguments (i.e., \ARG).
 - </p>
 - <p>During macro expansion, the macro parameters are converted to subsyms.
 - If the number of arguments passed the macro invocation exceeds the
 - number of parameters defined, the last parameter is assigned the string
 - equivalent of all remaining arguments.  If fewer arguments are given
 - than parameters, the missing parameters are assigned empty strings.  To
 - include a comma in an argument, you must enclose the argument in quotes.

 - <a name="index-TIC54X-subsym-builtins"></a>
 - <a name="index-builtin-subsym-functions_002c-TIC54X"></a>
 - <p>The following built-in subsym functions allow examination of the string
 - value of subsyms (or ordinary strings).  The arguments are strings
 - unless otherwise indicated (subsyms passed as args will be replaced by
 - the strings they represent).
