OTOH, checking if a multiline macro is called after an .elseif seems not too difficult.
That's indeed very good news! Since it is obviously a child's play, could you please tell me how to do it? With detailed source code, if you don't mind!
It's not child's play, of course, but IMHO a pretty basic exercise (sorry, can't help you with C code....):

MasmBasic.inc ;

; line count of macro db "Instr_", 0

PrintLine "test found"
