This seems a good time to ask a related question.

With the understanding that this will cost me some efficiency,
and (hopefully) make things a bit easier to use;

I have an often-used macro that would be MUCH more useful if I
could "skip" it with a normal BTFSS/BTFSC instruction, so I=20
began the macro with the following:

                LOCAL   macstart,macend
                BRA             macstart                ;unusual start to allow skip before macro
                BRA             macend
macstart
                LFSR    FSR0,timeblock + tmrnum * 8
                ....... main body of macro here......
macend
                endm


Would anyone care to comment on this method? I'm always open to
learning a better way.

Thanks,
Lyle
