Application m4-1.4-x86-public 36293 1 2001/06/12 1.01 GNU m4 for x86 397206 m4-host_x86 Public Software public http://www.gnu.org gnu@gnu.org Various An implementation of the traditional Unix macro processor. 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. GNU m4 are often used to generate HTML, where it can help give a consistent look to your pages. The development site is maintained using m4. http://www.gnu.org/software/m4/ public/m4/core-1.4/x86 1994/10/31 1.4 Low Stable 1 GNU General Public License rep://m4-1.4-public.repdata/LicenseUrl/GPL component Required m4 Software Development/Programming Languages and Parsers/Parsing and Lexical Analysis macro,preprocessor x86 Console Developer Developer Console Administrator libc.so.2 m4
