Package: m4 Version: 1.4.19-8 Architecture: amd64 Maintainer: Santiago Vila Installed-Size: 683 Depends: libc6 (>= 2.38) Suggests: m4-doc Section: interpreters Priority: optional Multi-Arch: foreign Homepage: https://www.gnu.org/software/m4/ Description: macro processing language 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). `m4' also has builtin functions for including files, running shell commands, doing arithmetic, etc. Autoconf needs GNU `m4' for generating `configure' scripts, but not for running them.
