GNU M4 is an implementation of the traditional Unix macro processor. It is
|
|
mostly SVR4 compatible although it has some extensions (for example, handling
|
|
more than 9 positional parameters to macros). GNU M4 also has built-in functions
|
|
for including files, running shell commands, doing arithmetic, etc.
|
|
|
|
GNU M4 is a macro processor in the sense that it copies its input to the output
|
|
expanding macros as it goes. Macros are either builtin or user-defined and can
|
|
take any number of arguments. Besides just doing macro expansion, m4 has builtin
|
|
functions for including named files, running UNIX commands, doing integer
|
|
arithmetic, manipulating text in various ways, recursion etc... m4 can be used
|
|
either as a front-end to a compiler or as a macro processor in its own right.
|
|
|
|
One of the biggest users of GNU M4 is the GNU Autoconf project.
