  • Lab 2 (solution):
    • For this lab you should have made an option tree called TRAIN (see the module on Option Trees for details), and added it to your path. 
      nM> path add train
    • Then you should have copied your macro to the mcr directory of the option tree.
    • Once the option tree was setup and mcrlab1.mm was copied to it, you should have added the command to the dictionary using UPDATE. 
      nM> update mcrlab1
Option tree (USER, SITE, UCL, etc): [] -> train
MYCOMMAND Abbreviation: [MCRLAB1] -> 
Support [M] -> M
Number of arguments [0] -> 3
Default 1 [] -> NAME=
Default 2 [] -> FEET=
Default 3 [] -> INCHES=
nM>
