There is no &accessible &SYS... system variable that records which of GEN|NOGEN is in effect.
What you can do is use a binary/boolean set symbol that you set and reset yourself, as in | gblb &suppress_mnotes | . . . |&suppress_mnote setb 1 | push NOGEN . . . | . . . Then within each macro that will be expanded you will need | gblb &suppress_mnotes and instances of | aif (&suppress_mnotes).after_mnote_<counter> | mnote . . . |.after_mnote_<counter> anop Things like this are easy enough to do when one is writing a set of macros, but they are tedious to retrofit.
