I personally haven't used m4 to run cmd scripts via windows m4, but cmd is such a hard shell to quote properly for in the first place that I wouldn't be surprised if you are invoking it incorrectly from your syscmd. > > syscmd(`create_test_temp.bat?) > > include(`test.tmp?) These two lines don't correspond to the output you showed above. Posting a complete reproducible testcase might help clarify exactly what you tried. > Diese Nachricht ist ausschließlich für die Personen bestimmt, an die sie > adressiert ist. It is considered poor netiquette to post to a publicly-archived list with a legal disclaimer that cannot be enforced, and some people refuse to reply as a result, limiting the help you can get. Please consider posting email from an account that does not append trailers like this. - -- Don't work too hard, make some time for fun as well!
