<para>Copies the given files while expanding the macros that they

contain. These macros are either built-in or user-defined and can

take any number of arguments. Besides performing macro expansion,

<command>m4</command> has built-in functions for including named
|
|
files, running Unix commands, performing integer arithmetic,

|
manipulating text, recursion, etc. The <command>m4</command> program
|
|
can be used either as a front end to a compiler or as a macro processor
|
|
in its own right</para>
