   Thanks for your note Bill.  Your solution is wrong however.  

Huh?  It works.. I even tested it with SR10 /com/cc.  What do you mean
by "wrong"?

   There is in
   fact no way to implement the MH macro in the preprocessor you describe.
   Yet another step backwards for an already underpowered macro processor.

If you don't like the fact that you can't wrap a macro argument with
'', complain to ANSI X3J11, don't complain to apollo.  X3J11 isn't
likely to do anything about it, though.
