+M4 is a macro processor. It copies input to output expanding macros as it 
+goes. Macros are either builtin or user-defined and can take any number
+of arguments. Besides just doing macro expansion m4 has builtin functions 
+for including named files, running UNIX commands, doing integer arithmetic, 
+manipulating text in various ways, recursion, etc. M4 can be used either 
+as a front-end to a compiler or as a macro processor in its own right.
