- 1. Why don't people use m4 more? Macro expansion, include-ing,
- and so on, for essentially no cost--I use it within an order
- of magnitude as often as awk(1), but I sure don't have the
- impression that others do. How come?
- 2. Is source available anywhere? I haven't been able to find
- it as part of the gnu distribution, but I'm not sure I'm
- looking in the right place.
- 3. How do I find a VMS!m4.exe?
