Hi One clarification I forgot to mention – these changes are to get m4 to build on z/OS. I have it running based on the m4-1.4.19 tarball and am working on doing a full build using git://git.savannah.gnu.org/m4.git (I have a few issues with libtools on z/OS that I am still fixing up for that).

I have a few small changes I would like to request – one minor one where there is a macro collision on z/OS where __stat is already defined, and ZjQcmQRYFpfptBannerStart This Message Is From an External Sender This message came from outside your organization. ZjQcmQRYFpfptBannerEnd Hello, I am new to the m4 community and would like to understand the best way to propose a patch. I have a few small changes I would like to request – one minor one where there is a macro collision on z/OS where __stat is already defined, and two others where I would like to add some z/OS specific code for conversion to ASCII from EBCDIC. I have a third where the error message from our runtime is ‘<message number> No such file or directory’ instead of just ‘No such file or directory’. What is the preferred way to propose these changes for the community? Thanks, Mike Thanks, Mike
