Important Notice

The pages on this site contain documentation for very old MS-DOS software, purely for historical purposes. If you're looking for up-to-date documentation, particularly for programming, you should not rely on the information found here, as it will be woefully out of date.

  Syntax:   @CatStr(string[, string...])
 
            name CATSTR [textitem[, textitem...]]
 
  See also: SUBSTR, SIZESTR, INSTR, TEXTEQU, Angle Brackets (<>),
            expression operator (%)
 
  Description:
 
     The @CatStr macro function concatenates one or more text items.
     The result can be used anywhere a text item is appropriate. The
     @CatStr function will not expand macros or expressions unless
     you use the expression operator (%).
 
     The CATSTR directive concatenates strings and assigns the result
     to <name>. These two lines are equivalent:
 
          language   TEXTEQU  @CatStr (<Quick>, <Pascal>)
          language   CATSTR   <Quick>, <Pascal>
 
     The <name> is a unique symbolic name, <string> is a text string,
     and <textitem> is a text item.
