Will Senn <will.senn at gmail.com> asks on Fri, 5 Feb 2016 09:48:14 -0600 about macros in RT11.  

I have a copy of this book on my shelf

@String{pub-PH                  = "Pren{\-}tice-Hall"}
@String{pub-PH:adr              = "Upper Saddle River, NJ 07458, USA"}

@Book{Eckhouse:1979:MSO,
  author =       "Richard H. {Eckhouse, Jr.} and L. Robert Morris",
  title =        "Minicomputer systems: organization, programming, and
                 applications ({PDP-11})",
  publisher =    pub-PH,
  address =      pub-PH:adr,
  pages =        "xix + 491",
  year =         "1979",
  ISBN =         "0-13-583914-9",
  ISBN-13 =      "978-0-13-583914-0",
  LCCN =         "QA76.8.P2E26 1979",
  bibdate =      "Fri Aug 07 17:22:02 1998",
  bibsource =    "http://www.math.utah.edu/pub/tex/bib/master.bib",
  acknowledgement = ack-nhfb,
}

and find that it has a lot of assembly code examples, and about a dozen pages on user-defined macros.

Just pulled my well-worn copy of Eckhouse/Morris... 

Great book. I used it extensively when I was writing real-time code for a company I worked for way-back-when..... 

Really great examples of Macro-11 coding techniques. Especially coroutines.
