Details:
I added a macro for getting the current makefile; it's attached in
example.sh.
The short version: if a macro doesn't need any arguments you cannot execute
the macro unless you trail the name with a space or execute it with $(call):
$(current_makefile) <--- attempts to expand a variable of that name
$(current_makefile ) <-- works
$(call current_makefile) <-- also works
The long version; to begin with:
* I had to re-type the script because my development machine doesn't have
internet access; my apologies if it has errors.
* I understand that "reading_file" is not part of the interface currently
exposed. I couldn't find any way to use "gmk_floc" through the already
exposed API, so I'm tinkering with this. I'll be putting that in as another
enhancement request.
* The documentation doesn't make it entirely clear what should happen if the
minimum # of arguments is zero for the 3rd parameter to gmk_add_function.
When the script is executed this is what I see:
/tmp/GmDbftx0:1: warning: undefined variable '.LOADED'
/tmp/GmDbftx0:2: warning: undefined variable 'current_makefile'
/tmp/GmDbftx0
/tmp/GmDbftx0
gmake: *** No targets. Stop.
