  You've not used macros before, have you? ;-)

push    macro
        movwf   wcopy           ; save w register
        swapf   reg_status, w   ; save status register
        movwf   scopy           ; without altering status bits
        endm

pop     macro
        swapf    scopy, w       ; swapf status nibbles again, place in w
        movwf    reg_status     ; restores status reg (incl. bank reg)
        swapf    wcopy, f       ; swap nibbles in wcopy, keeping result
                                ; in wcopy
        swapf    wcopy, w       ; swap again, place in w
                                ; (status unaffected)
        endm
        end

  Either it's your formatting error as I have corrected, or MPASM
considers "push" and "pop" as reserved words since they are opcodes for
some processors.  If the latter, just use "wpush" and "wpop" instead.
