All of these macros can be explained concisely with one table and one
combined example, no need to repeat a whole section and paragraph of the
text for each one of them that only differ in a few words. Also mention
some use cases, and give real-life examples from existing code to better
explain the usage.

-
-ptx/wwo
-~~~~~~~
-
-To convert the state (set/unset) of a variable into a ``with/without``
-string use the ``ptx/wwo`` macro.
-If the given <variable> is set this macro expands to
-the string ``with``, if unset to ``without`` instead.
-
-Usage:
-
-.. code-block:: none
-
- --$(call ptx/wwo, <variable>)-<parameter>
-
-An example:
-
-.. code-block:: make
-
- FOO_CONF_OPT += --$(call ptx/wwo,FOO_VARIABLE)-something
-
-Depending on the state of FOO_VARIABLE this line results into
-
-.. code-block:: make
-
- FOO_CONF_OPT += --with-something (if FOO_VARIABLE is set)
- FOO_CONF_OPT += --without-something (if FOO_VARIABLE is unset)
-
-ptx/ifdef
-~~~~~~~~~
-
-To convert the state (set/unset) of a variable into one of two strings use the
-``ptx/ifdef`` macro.
-If the given <variable> is set this macro expands to
-the first given string, if unset to the second given string.
-
-Usage:
+Some real-life examples:
 
 .. code-block:: make
+ :linenos:
 
- --with-something=$(call ptx/ifdef, <variable>, <first-string>, <second-string)
+ BASH_CONF_OPT      += --$(call ptx/endis, PTXCONF_BASH_DEBUGGER)-debugger
+ OPENOCD_CONF_OPT   += --$(call ptx/disen, 
PTXCONF_OPENOCD_PARPORT_DISABLE_PARPORT_PPDEV)-parport-ppdev
+ COREUTILS_CONF_OPT += --$(call ptx/wwo, PTXCONF_GLOBAL_SELINUX)-selinux
+ SYSTEMD_CONF_OPT   += -Dmicrohttpd=$(call 
ptx/truefalse,PTXCONF_SYSTEMD_MICROHTTPD)
+ CUPS_CONF_OPT      += $(call 
ptx/ifdef,PTXCONF_CUPS_PERL,--with-perl=/usr/bin/perl,--without-perl)
 
-An example:
+If the respective variable is set, these statements would expand to:
 
 .. code-block:: make
+ :linenos:
 
- FOO_CONF_OPT += --with-something=$(call ptx/ifdef,FOO_VARIABLE,/usr,none)
+ BASH_CONF_OPT      += --enable-debugger
+ OPENOCD_CONF_OPT   += --disable-parport-ppdev
+ COREUTILS_CONF_OPT += --with-selinux
+ SYSTEMD_CONF_OPT   += -Dmicrohttpd=true
+ CUPS_CONF_OPT      += --with-perl=/usr/bin/perl
 
-Depending on the state of FOO_VARIABLE this line results into
+whereas if the respective variable is unset, they would expand to the opposite:
 
 .. code-block:: make
+ :linenos:
 
- FOO_CONF_OPT += --with-something=/usr (if FOO_VARIABLE is set)
- FOO_CONF_OPT += --with-something=none (if FOO_VARIABLE is unset)
+ BASH_CONF_OPT      += --disable-debugger
+ OPENOCD_CONF_OPT   += --enable-parport-ppdev
+ COREUTILS_CONF_OPT += --without-selinux
 
-ptx/truefalse
-~~~~~~~~~~~~~
-
-To convert the state (set/unset) of a variable into a ``true/false``
-string use the ``ptx/truefalse`` macro.
-If the given <variable> is set this macro expands to
-the string ``true``, if unset to ``false`` instead.
-
-Usage:
-
-.. code-block:: none
-
- -Dwith-something=$(call ptx/truefalse,<variable>)
-
-An example:
-
-.. code-block:: make
-
- FOO_CONF_OPT += -Dwith-something=$(call ptx/truefalse,<variable>)
-
-Depending on the state of FOO_VARIABLE this line results into
-
