st: assign several lines of syntax to local?

Hello All
I have a large do-file in which a few lines of syntax come back
several times. It is possible to assign a local to the lines of syntax
so that I don't have to repeat it all the time? I don't want to use a
loop for this. The "include" command does something similar, but I
would have to save the relevant syntax in a separate file which I
don't want. So, essentially I would like to assign several lines of
syntax to a local, is this possible? Are there alternatives? Thanks.
