TODO file for GNU m4
Tell <bug-m4@gnu.org> if you feel like volunteering for any
of these ideas, listed more or less in decreasing order of priority.
* Features or problems
- Fix format() builtin to handle %c more like printf(1) in the shell
http://lists.gnu.org/archive/html/bug-m4/2007-05/msg00047.html
Also, gnulib needs help to overcome mingw bugs related to format().
- Update documentation from accumulated mail about it
- Study synclines at the very beginning of each diverted sequence
- Make eval work on bignums - the 32 bits limit is artificial
From Krste Asanovic <krste@icsi.berkeley.edu>, 1993-03-20
* Optimization and clean up
- Check for memory leaks and uninitialized reads
From Vern Paxson <vern@horse.ee.lbl.gov> on 1993-12-06
- Profile GNU m4 and speed it up
From David J. MacKenzie <djm@eng.umd.edu>, 1993-01-20
GNU m4 should be sped up by a factor of three for competing
with other versions (I think that the lexer is not agressive
enough and too often return single characters; obstacks might
be a little abused, too).
- Have NULs go really undisturbed through GNU m4
See `dumpdef' and debugging section, which abuses %s
From Thorsten Ohl <ohl@chico.harvard.edu>, 1992-12-21
path.c (add_include_directory): Why the '\0' terminator?
GNU m4 is lousy regarding NULs in streams (this would require
maintaining the string lengths, and avoiding strlen, strcpy,
etc.).
