# make 4.3:
# https://lwn.net/Articles/810071/
# Number signs (#) appearing inside a macro reference or function invocation
#   no longer introduce comments and should not be escaped with backslashes:
#   thus a call such as:
#     foo := $(shell echo '#')
#   is legal.  Previously the number sign needed to be escaped, for example:
#     foo := $(shell echo '\#')
#   Now this latter will resolve to "\#".  If you want to write makefiles
#   portable to both versions, assign the number sign to a variable:
#     H := \#
#     foo := $(shell echo '$H')
SHARP_SIGN := \#

# Case conversion macros. This is inspired by the 'up' macro from gmsl
# (http://gmsl.sf.net). It is optimised very heavily because these macros
# are used a lot. It is about 5 times faster than forking a shell and tr.
#
# The caseconvert-helper creates a definition of the case conversion macro.
# After expansion by the outer $(eval ), the UPPERCASE macro is defined as:
# $(strip $(eval __tmp := $(1))  $(eval __tmp := $(subst a,A,$(__tmp))) ... )
# In other words, every letter is substituted one by one.
#
# The caseconvert-helper allows us to create this definition out of the
# [FROM] and [TO] lists, so we don't need to write down every substition
# manually. The uses of $ and $$ quoting are chosen in order to do as
# much expansion as possible up-front.
#
# Note that it would be possible to conceive a slightly more optimal
# implementation that avoids the use of __tmp, but that would be even
# more unreadable and is not worth the effort.

# This macro properly escapes a command string, then prints it with printf:
#
#   - first, backslash '\' are self-escaped, so that they do not escape
#     the following char and so that printf properly outputs a backslash;
#
#   - next, single quotes are escaped by closing an existing one, adding
#     an escaped one, and re-openning a new one (see below for the reason);
#
#   - then '%' signs are self-escaped so that the printf does not interpret
#     them as a format specifier, in case the variable contains an actual
#     printf with a format;
#
#   - finally, $(sep) is replaced with the literal '\n' so that make does
#     not break on the so-expanded variable, but so that the printf does
#     correctly output an LF.
#
# Note: this must be escaped in this order to avoid over-escaping the
# previously escaped elements.
#
# Once everything has been escaped, it is passed between single quotes
# (that's why the single-quotes are escaped they way they are, above,
# and why the dollar sign is not escaped) to printf(1). A trailing
# newline is apended, too.
#
# Note: leading or trailing spaces are *not* stripped.
