-----BEGIN PGP SIGNED MESSAGE----- Hash: SHA1 Based on the documentation, I expected m4_for([i], [1], [5000], [[a]]) to be identical to m4_for([i], [1], [5000], [], [[a]]) with both forms printing 5000 a's. However, m4_for currently does not take $# into consideration, and the former form resulted in an error due to trying to treat [[a]] as the step size with an empty expression, rather than realizing that the step size was omitted. Is it worth my time providing a patch for this? - -- Life is short - so eat dessert first!
