  22. Folks,
  23.  
  24. Do I recall correctly that in the dim distant past you could pre-process the
  25. Icon source through m4 or similar?
  26.  
  27. Can I do that now? I want to embed simple timestamps into the files each
  28. time they are compiled. Are there any new &keywords I'm missing that perform
  29. this duty? [not the runttime time, but the build time and a few other
  30. obvious facts]
  31.  
  32. I suppose I could stick the "@(#)......" string into the .icn and then
  33. post-process the .u1 file...
  34.  
  35.
