+Contributions are warmly welcomed!  To avoid any misunderstandings, do please first discuss the change you wish to make via issue, email, or any other method with the owners of this repository before submitting a PR.

-with the project.
+Please note we have a [code of conduct](https://www.contributor-covenant.org/version/2/0/code_of_conduct/), please follow it in all your interactions with the project.
+
+# Environment Setup
+
+This repository makes use of the [SASjs](https://sasjs.io) framework for code organisation, compilation, documentation, and deployment.  The following tools are highly recommended:
+
+* [NPM](https://sasjs.io/windows/#npm) - the runtime and dependency manager for [SASjs CLI](https://cli.sasjs.io) (batteries included)
+* [VSCode](https://sasjs.io/windows/#vscode) - feature packed IDE for code editing (warning - highly effective!)
+* [GIT](https://sasjs.io/windows/#git) - a safety net you cannot (and should not) do without.
+
+For generating the documentation (`sasjs doc`) it is also necessary to install [doxygen](https://www.doxygen.nl/manual/install.html).
 
 
-## Code of Conduct
+To get configured:
 
-### Our Pledge
+1.  Clone the repository
+2.  Install local dependencies (`npm install`)
+3.  Install the SASjs CLI globally (`npm install -g @sasjs/cli`)
+4.  Add a target, and authentication (`npm add`).  See [docs](https://cli.sasjs.io/add/).
 
-In the interest of fostering an open and welcoming environment, we as
-contributors and maintainers pledge to making participation in our project and
-our community a harassment-free experience for everyone, regardless of age, body
-size, disability, ethnicity, gender identity and expression, level of experience,
-nationality, personal appearance, race, religion, or sexual identity and
-orientation.
+To contribute:
 
-### Our Standards
+1.  Create your feature branch (`git checkout -b myfeature`)
+2.  Make your change
+3.  Update the `all.sas` file (`python3 build.py`)
+4.  Push and make a PR
 
-Examples of behavior that contributes to creating a positive environment
-include:
-
-* Using welcoming and inclusive language
-* Being respectful of differing viewpoints and experiences
-* Gracefully accepting constructive criticism
-* Focusing on what is best for the community
-* Showing empathy towards other community members
-
-Examples of unacceptable behavior by participants include:
-
-* Trolling, insulting/derogatory comments, and personal or political attacks
-* Public or private harassment
-* Publishing others' private information, such as a physical or electronic
-  address, without explicit permission
-* Other conduct which could reasonably be considered inappropriate in a
-  professional setting
-
-### Our Responsibilities
-
-Project maintainers are responsible for clarifying the standards of acceptable
-behavior and are expected to take appropriate and fair corrective action in
-response to any instances of unacceptable behavior.
-
-Project maintainers have the right and responsibility to remove, edit, or
-reject comments, commits, code, wiki edits, issues, and other contributions
-that are not aligned to this Code of Conduct, or to ban temporarily or
-permanently any contributor for other behaviors that they deem inappropriate,
-threatening, offensive, or harmful.
-
-### Scope
-
-This Code of Conduct applies both within project spaces and in public spaces
-when an individual is representing the project or its community. Examples of
-representing a project or community include using an official project e-mail
-address, posting via an official social media account, or acting as an appointed
-representative at an online or offline event. Representation of a project may be
-further defined and clarified by project maintainers.
-
-### Enforcement
-
-Instances of abusive, harassing, or otherwise unacceptable behavior may be
-reported by contacting the project team at support@macropeople.com. All
-complaints will be reviewed and investigated and will result in a response that
-is deemed necessary and appropriate to the circumstances. The project team is
-obligated to maintain confidentiality with regard to the reporter of an incident.
-Further details of specific enforcement policies may be posted separately.
-
-Project maintainers who do not follow or enforce the Code of Conduct in good
-faith may face temporary or permanent repercussions as determined by other
-members of the project's leadership.

 ## Coding Standards
 
 - Indentation = 2 spaces. No tabs!
+- no trailing white space
+- no invisible characters, other than spaces. If invisibles are needed, use hex literals.
 - Macro variables should not have the trailing dot (`&var` not `&var.`) unless necessary to prevent incorrect resolution
-- The closing `%mend;` should not contain the macro name.
+- The closing `%mend;` should **not** contain the macro name.
 - All macros should be defined with brackets, even if no variables are needed - ie `%macro x();` not `%macro x;`
 - Mandatory parameters should be positional, all optional parameters should be keyword (var=) style.
 - All dataset references must be 2 level (eg `work.blah`, not `blah`). This is to avoid contention when options [DATASTMTCHK](https://support.sas.com/documentation/cdl/en/lrdict/64316/HTML/default/viewer.htm#a000279064.htm)=ALLKEYWORDS is in effect.
 - Avoid naming collisions! All macro variables should be local scope. Use system generated work tables where possible - eg `data ; set sashelp.class; run; data &output; set &syslast; run;`
-- If you have a long-running SQL query, the use of a `quit;` statement is recommended in order to benefit from the timing statistics.
+- The use of `quit;` for `proc sql` is optional unless you are looking to benefit from the timing statistics.

   @details Configures an abort mechanism according to site specific policies or

-    in the case of a batch run.
+    in the case of a batch run.  For STP sessions
+
+  The method used varies according to the context.  Important points:
+
+  @li should not use endsas or abort cancel in 9.4m3 environments as this can
+    cause hung multibridge sessions and result in a frozen STP server
+  @li should not use endsas in viya 3.5 as this destroys the session and cannot
+    fetch results (although both mv_getjoblog.sas and the @sasjs/adapter will
+    recognise this and fetch the log of the parent session instead)
+  @li STP environments must finish cleanly to avoid the log being sent to
+    _webout.  To assist with this, we also run stpsrvset('program error', 0)
+    and set SYSCC=0.  For 9.4m3 we take a unique approach - we open a macro
+    but don't close it!  This provides a graceful abort, EXCEPT when called
+    called within a %include within a macro (and that macro contains additional
+    logic).  See mp_abort.test.nofix.sas for the example case.
+    If you know of another way to gracefully abort a 9.4m3 STP session, we'd
+    love to hear about it!
 
-  Using SAS Abort Cancel mechanisms can cause hung sessions in some Stored Process
-  environments.  This macro takes a unique approach - we set the SAS syscc to 0,
-  run `stpsrvset('program error', 0)` (if SAS 9) and then - we open a macro
-  but don't close it!  This provides a graceful abort for SAS web services in all
-  web enabled environments.

+  Usage:
 
       %mp_lib2cards(lib=sashelp
           , outloc= C:\temp )
 
+  The output will be one cards file in the `outloc` directory per dataset in the
+  input `lib` library.  If the `outloc` directory does not exist, it is created.
+
+  To create a single SAS file with the first 1000 records of each table in a

+
+      %mp_lib2cards(lib=sashelp
+          , outloc= /tmp
+          , outfile= myfile.sas
+          , maxobs= 1000

+
+  An online generator is available here:

+
+  This structure is also used by the Macro Core library for documenting input/

+  for web services.
+
+  We take the standard definition one step further by embedding the informat

+      |---|---|---|
+      |some text|42|01JAN1960|
