It looks like pic has no string variables, and the "if"
works at the statement level, not expression level.
To provide a somewhat constructive answer: do you really
need the "for" loop here? Perhaps it might also help to
restructure the code, for example like this:
.PS
define mybox {
s = layer * margin
box width w height h with .sw at (s,s)
box width w height margin with .nw at last box .nw dashed $1
w = w - tr
h = h - tr
layer = layer + 1
}
w = 3; h = 2; margin = .2; tr = 2 * margin; layer = 0
mybox("Entête Ethernet")
mybox("Entête IP")
mybox("Entête TCP")
mybox("Donnees applicatives")
.PE
