What's New

2000-Jun-27

Version 1.0.1 released. Fixed a flaw where @if .. @else .. @if .. @else constructs nested more than three deep did not resolve to the proper condition in some cases. Changed the license terms from the GPL to a more liberal MIT-style license (see the README for more info).

What It Is

Lwpp is a lightweight text file preprocessor, similar (shockingly) in some ways to the C preprocessor.

I created lwpp to preprocess spec files in order to build multiple RPM package variants from a single spec file. In particular, i began doing that using GNU m4, but some limitations inherent in the m4 language made that impractical.
