Serves as a placeholder for a command argument ''within a macro'' (if used outside of a macro, an error is issued). The argument that takes the place of &&arg is [[passing_arguments_to_macros.html#arg1_arg2|dynamically provided]] by the Client user.

'''Syntax:'''

&&arg(''n'') 

where ''n'' is a numeric constant, or a [[working_with_macro_variables.html|macro variable]]. 

Designed for commands that have multiple arguments, this function parses the blank-delimited, user-provided string to determine the replacement values for the &&arg occurrences within the command. The first such value in the string replaces &&arg(1), the second replaces &&arg(2), and so on. 

The [[passing_arguments_to_macros.html#using_argstring|&argstring]] variable is a placeholder designed for single-argument commands within a macro. 

If a command takes a single argument, or you want to treat whatever is passed to the command as a single string (even if it contains blanks), use the [[passing_arguments_to_macros.html#using_argstring|&argstring]] variable instead of the &&arg function.
