Right well that is the answer to your first problem.  The 'n' option
in the "-ain" switch suppresses forms processing, such as the .page
directive.  If you remove this option you will start seeing form feeds
and page titles being emitted.

Also there is no 'i' option for the listing switch.  I assume that you
meant 'l' ?

As for macro expansions happening on the last line of the code, can
you provide an example.   The source file you sent did not have any
macros in it, (unless they were in the sa2.inc include file, but you
did not send a copy of that file).

Cheers
