SuSE Linux Command Paths

This sample unixcmds_suse_linux_macros.cfg file specifies a fairly typical set of command paths for programs you might reference elsewhere in your PIKT configuration.  Note how, by the use of the '#if suse93' and #elsif suse90' preprocessor directives, we can customize paths based on the SuSE Linux version number.  Note also the "local defs" section at the very bottom of this file, where you may specify program-and-command-option combinations, set local program paths, and customize your command macros in other ways.

With this setup, if you reference the =egrep and =awk macros in a filter statement, for example,

        filter "=egrep '^[A-Z]' | =awk 'NF==7'"

the piktc preprocessor would render this on a SuSE Linux system as

        filter "/usr/bin/egrep '^[A-Z]' | /usr/bin/awk 'NF==7'"

Compare this with unixcmds_redhat_linux_macros.cfg.

To generate this file, you might make use of the sample script mkunixcmds.

The SuSE Linux command paths macro specification file (truncated for brevity's sake) follows.
