[Simh] Macro-11 Macro library question (RT11 running in SimH PDP11)

[Timothe Litt]

Try the obvious:

lib/mac/list tin.mlb

I don't remember exactly, but I think there's a /detail or /names or
/list=names that will list the macro names in the library.

That will at least determine if MAC *should* find the macro.
