SATAN macros
| GSI | Biophysics | SATAN long write-up |
Macros are most often used in user analysis programs. They appear as an extension to the basic C programming language and must be expanded by a special preprocessor (spp) into ordinary C code.

Although uppercase coding is recommended, macro names are not case sensitive. Macro lines should be delimited by a semicolon. At the time of this writing they must not exceed a single text line.

There are two groups of macros available distinguished by the first character of their name.
