<para><command>m4</command> 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 just doing macro
|
|
expansion, m4 has built-in functions for including named files, running Unix
|
|
commands, doing integer arithmetic, manipulating text in various ways,
|
|
recursion, and so on. The m4 program can be used either as a front-end to a
|
|
compiler or as a macro processor in its own right.</para>
