Subject: [ANNOUNCEMENT] Updated: m4-1.4.4-1

-----BEGIN PGP SIGNED MESSAGE-----
Hash: SHA1

A new release of m4, 1.4.4-1, is available.

NEWS
====
This is a new upstream release.  From the NEWS file, the changes since
1.4.3 are:

Version 1.4.4 - October 2005, by Gary V. Vaughan

* ./configure --infodir=/usr/share/info now works correctly.
* When any file named on the command line is missing exit with status 1.

You must rebuild from source if you want the experimental changeword
feature enabled, as enabling it slows down normal operation.

DESCRIPTION
===========
m4 is an implementation of the traditional Unix macro processor. It is
mostly SVR4 compatible although it has some extensions (for example,
handling more than 9 positional parameters to macros). GNU m4 also has
built-in functions for including files, running shell commands, doing
arithmetic, etc.

UPDATE
======
To update your installation, click on the "Install Cygwin now" link on the
http://cygwin.com/ web page.  This downloads setup.exe to your system.
Save it and run setup, answer the questions and pick up 'm4' from the
'Interpreters' category.

DOWNLOAD:
=========
Note that downloads from sources.redhat.com (aka cygwin.com) aren't
allowed due to bandwidth limitations.  This means that you will need to
find a mirror which has this update, please choose the one nearest to you:
http://cygwin.com/mirrors.html

QUESTIONS:
==========
If you want to make a point or ask a question the Cygwin mailing
list is the appropriate place.
