Hey SAS-C!

Just FYI.

The BasePlus package [ver. 2.0.0]

Available at: https://github.com/SASPAC/baseplus

Changes:

New macros:

• %expandDataSetsList() allowing to expand data set lists of the form: a1-a3, b_:, mixed, and _all_;
• %unifyVarsCaseSize() allowing to convert all variables in a list of datasets to all-low-case or all-upcase letters.

Both macros are result of recent discussions at SAS-L and communities.sas.com.

New format/informats:

• bpklenght.
• bplenght.

See documentation for details.
