Lacking that, does anybody have a preprocessor > that handles token pasting as required by the X sources? I wrote a preprocessor that I believe sticks fairly closely to the Reiser semantics. Since X can be built on old systems with Reiser cpps, this should be good enough for your purposes. (My preprocessor is good enough for use with imake when building X, and I've used it for all normal C compilations on some of our machines for years, so the semantics must match Reiser's pretty closely.) I have placed this preprocessor in the public domain. It can be had by ftp from 132.206.1.1 in X/XNeXT/cpp* (I built this while porting X to the NeXT), or by mail from me if you can't ftp it for some reason. der Mouse old: mcgill-vision!mouse new: mouse@larry.mcrcim.mcgill.edu -- comp.archives file verification larry.mcrcim.mcgill.edu -rw-r--r-- 1 0 0 101219 May 10 00:45 /X/XNeXT/cpp.shar -rw-r--r-- 1 0 0 100291 Oct 24 1990 /X/XNeXT/cpp.shar- -rw-r--r-- 1 0 0 38154 May 10 00:48 /X/XNeXT/cpp.shar.Z -rw-r--r-- 1 0 0 48367 May 10 00:48 /X/XNeXT/cpp.shar.Z.btoa found mouse-cpp ok larry.mcrcim.mcgill.edu:/X/XNeXT/cpp*
