but but... m4 exists for NT. you can even find all the man pages and the man
program.
they just don't come with the system. Also if you need a
preprocessor why don't you
use cpp ? I am sure all of us have one of these
lying around.

You're right,
but I've found using separate preprocessors pretty cumbersome
and error
prone in the past, I usually forget to preprocess the source after I
change
it and then wonder why my changes had no effect :-(
BTW, I am an NT
developer but am fortunate (?) in having a UNIX box on which I
can look up
strange terms link 'm4' in the man pages. Can I make a general
plea for
posters here to remember that java currently runs on both Suns and NT
boxes,
so using platform specific terminology may confuse 50% of your
readership
:-)
Andy.
