27.1.4 Using predefined macros

Mif2Go provides several predefined macros for HTML, listed in Table 27-1. Avoid giving any of your own macros a name that starts with an underscore; the Mif2Go definition takes precedence. The "$" says "this is a Mif2Go construct"; the "_" says "the name is reserved, not one of yours".

Note:

For backward compatibility Mif2Go recognizes a predefined macro name without the underscore (such as <$trail>), but only if you have not defined your own macro with the same name. Your macro definition takes precedence if there is no underscore.

Table 27-1 Predefined macros for HTML

You cannot use predefined macros in system commands. See §32.4.2.4 Executing system commands in a .bat file.
