Re: New Feature : Divert2 to custom named file

[Denis Valois]

    Hello André,
    
    If I understand well, the function you request is already available.
    
    Ref GM4 documentation section "10.2 Undiverting output".
    It states "As a GNU extension, diversions may contain non-numeric
    strings, which are treated as the names of files to copy into the
    output without expansion. A warning is issued if a file could not be
    opened."
    
    In short, you divert as usual, into one or several divnum.  Then
    after you undivert into your specific files.
    
    Regards,
    
    Denis/

Hello
I would like to have a divert2 function where one could write to a file, not a temp file.

I use M4 for CPPP C prepreprocessing

For instance one could use the divert2 function to transform a matrix.m4 into a matrix.h and a matrix.c

I am quite confused by sources and can't manage to do it by myself, anyone to help me ?

Cordially
André
