What seems dumb to me, but I now just accept, is that
you have to do
Flag Operation -- Test flag (and name the flag),
before you put in the Clear Flag, Set Flag, or Toggle
Flag operation. I assumed that IF statements would look
all on their own to see what the state of the thing is.
I think you are mistaken. Any Flag Operation (clear, set, toggle, test) can be programmed into a macro at any time. However, the order in which they are executed will obviously affect the course of the program. It wouldn't make sense to execute a Flag-Test without some previous intentional Flag operation.
The Flag-Test is an If statement. The operation(s) performed are determined by the condition of the flag being tested.
