 ## Installation
 
 First, download the repo to a location your SAS system can access. Then update your sasautos path to include the components you wish to have available, eg:
 
 ```sas
-options insert=(sasautos="/your/path/macrocore/base");
-options insert=(sasautos="/your/path/macrocore/meta");
+%let repoloc=/your/path/core;
+options insert=(sasautos="&repoloc/base");
+options insert=(sasautos="&repoloc/ddl");
+options insert=(sasautos="&repoloc/fcmp");
+options insert=(sasautos="&repoloc/lua");

+options insert=(sasautos="&repoloc/metax");
+options insert=(sasautos="&repoloc/server");
+options insert=(sasautos="&repoloc/viya");
+options insert=(sasautos="&repoloc/xplatform");
 ```
 
 The above can be done directly in your sas program, via an autoexec, or an initialisation program.

+  @li The use of endsas in 9.4m6+ windows environments for POST requests to the

   @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)

+    Where possible, we take a unique "soft abort" approach - we open a macro
     but don't close it!  This works everywhere EXCEPT inside a \%include inside
     a macro.  For that, we recommend you use mp_include.sas to perform the
     include, and then call \%mp_abort(mode=INCLUDE) from the source program (ie,
     OUTSIDE of the top-parent macro).

+/**
+  @file
+  @brief Returns a unique hash for each file in a directory
+  @details Hashes each file in each directory, and then hashes the hashes to
+  create a hash for each directory also.
+
+  This makes use of the new `hashing_file()` and `hashing` functions, available
+  since 9.4m6. Interestingly, those functions can be used in pure macro, eg:
+
+      %put %sysfunc(hashing_file(md5,/path/to/file.blob,0));
+
+  Actual usage:
+
+      %let fpath=/some/directory;
+
+      %mp_hashdirectory(&fpath,outds=myhash,maxdepth=2)
+
+      data _null_;
+        set work.myhash;
+        put (_all_)(=);
+      run;
+
+  Whilst files are hashed in their entirety, the logic for creating a folder
+  hash is as follows:
+
+  @li Sort the files by filename (case sensitive, uppercase then lower)
+  @li Take the first 100 hashes, concatenate and hash
+  @li Concatenate this hash with another 100 hashes and hash again
+  @li Continue until the end of the folder.  This is the folder hash
+  @li If a folder contains other folders, start from the bottom of the tree -
+    the folder hashes cascade upwards so you know immediately if there is a
+    change in a sub/sub directory
+  @li If a subfolder has no content (empty) then it is ignored. No hash created.
+  @li If the file is empty, it is also ignored / no hash created.
+  @li If the target directory (&inloc) is empty, &outds will also be empty

-/**
-  @file
-  @brief Provides a replacement for the stpsrv_header function
-  @details The stpsrv_header is normally a built-in function, used to set the
-  headers for SAS 9 Stored Processes as documented here:
-  https://go.documentation.sas.com/doc/en/itechcdc/9.4/stpug/srvhead.htm
-
-  The purpose of this custom function is to provide a replacement when running
-  similar code as a web service against
-  [sasjs/server](https://github.com/sasjs/server).  It operates by creating a
-  text file with the headers.  The location of this text file is determined by
-  a macro variable (`sasjs_stpsrv_header_loc`) which needs to be injected into
-  each service by the calling process, eg:
-
-      %let sasjs_stpsrv_header_loc = C:/temp/some_uuid/stpsrv_header.txt;
-
-  Note - the function works by appending headers to the file.  If multiple same-
-  named headers are provided, they will all be appended - the calling process
-  needs to pick up the last one.  This will mean removing the attribute if the
-  final record has an empty value.
-
-  The function takes the following (positional) parameters:
-
-  | PARAMETER | DESCRIPTION |
-  |------------|-------------|
-  | name $  | name of the header attribute to create|
-  | value  $  | value of the header attribute|
-
-  It returns 0 if successful, or -1 if an error occured.
-
-  Usage:
-
-      %let sasjs_stpsrv_header_loc=%sysfunc(pathname(work))/stpsrv_header.txt;
-
-      %mcf_stpsrv_header(wrap=YES, insert_cmplib=YES)

-        rc=stpsrv_header('Content-type','application/text');

-        infile "&sasjs_stpsrv_header_loc";
-        input;
-        putlog _infile_;
-      run;
-
-
-  @param [out] wrap= (NO) Choose YES to add the proc fcmp wrapper.
-  @param [out] lib= (work) The output library in which to create the catalog.
-  @param [out] cat= (sasjs) The output catalog in which to create the package.
-  @param [out] pkg= (utils) The output package in which to create the function.
