Thnking about it, the old technique for passing an unknown number of
arguments is to use a string - the macro accepts and then parses a
string like "1,3" or "5,1,2,3,4,5" into variable 1 or variables 1 to
5.

It'd not necessarily be fast - but it'd work I suspect. There are
string functions like left$() and mid$() aren't there?

Hmm... I can find "substr" which seems to be the equivalent of mid$
(and could be used in place of left$) and you can use "strlen" as the
equivalent of len() (to find the number of characters in the string
which needs parsing).

Since I can't see anything in the POV docs which suggest arrays are
not permissable as parameters, that might be the easiest option
though.
