+## >>> `%mInclude()` macro: <<< <a name="minclude-macro"></a> #######################  
+
+The mInclude() macro is a macrolanguage version of the SAS `%include` statement.
+But it allows for "embedding any code anywhere into SAS programs".
+
+Macro was inspired by *Leonid Batkhan* and his blog post:
+
+"Embedding any code anywhere into SAS programs" from May 30, 2023.
+
+Link: `https://blogs.sas.com/content/sgf/2023/05/30/embedding-any-code-anywhere-into-sas-programs/`
+
+The implementation presented, in contrary to inspiration source, is 
+based on the `doSubL()` function and a list of global
+macrovariables of the form `______<N>` (six underscores and a number).
+
+See examples below for the details.
+
+The `%mInclude()` macro executes like a pure macro code.
+
+### SYNTAX: ###################################################################
+
+The basic syntax is the following, the `<...>` means optional parameters:
+~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~sas
+%mInclude(
+  < f>
+  <,source=> 
+  <,lrecl=>
+  <,symdel=>
+)
+~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
+
+**Arguments description**:
+
+1. `f`            - *Required*, a SAS `fileref` or a **quoted** path 
+                    to the included file.
+
+*. `source=0`     - *Optional*, default value is `0`.
+                    Set to `1` if the source should be printed in the log.
+
+*. `lrecl=32767`  - *Optional*, default value is `32767`.
+                    Sets the `lrecl` value for the file width.
+
+*. `symdel=1`     - *Optional*, default value is `1`.
+                    Indicates if the global macrovariables
+                    `______1` to `______N` should be deleted
+                    when the macro ends.
