Macro overloading

[Ryan Lea <Ry...@Rightmove.co.uk>]

Hi again all,

I have read the archives and understand that macro overloading is not
actually a possibilty at the moment (hence my interest in using Maps for
passing numerous variables as one).  Is macro overloading something that it
likely to be introduced in the future, as it would be very useful in many
circumstances ... Or is it something that is really beyond the scope of
velocity at the moment?

Cheers

Ryan

Define 'overload'.  You can overload now by having a template specific  
implementation of a macro...
