Leon, you can download the PDS macros that are compatible with Synario.
I'm using v5.0. Check their download section. I had started with PDS around
three years ago so fortunately I have the book covering the macros. I've
found the converted Synario macros work as the book describes. Note, not all
of the PDS macros are available. They do include the counters, shift
registers, mux/demux's, and comparators.

   I also noticed a newer archive with converted macros for Synario v5.1. I
assume the on-line version has been updated but I have'nt had time to check
it out.
