I have an application that is just screaming for something like a 
macro-processor.  The C pre-processor is no good because the files
I need to deal with are Motorola assembly sources which use '#'
to signify a constant value as opposed to a memory reference.

The M4 macro processor sounds like it might work, and is available
on both the ISC and SCO systems I have access to, but the manuals
only seem to include information on how to run the program, and the
pre-defined macros.  There is nothing on how to write macros for the
thing.

Any pointers?
