A macro and/or template processor written in Tcl for Tcl. See http://www.wjduquette.com/expand/index.html for its homepage.

This is a useful tool for conversion of tcl-based documents into other formats. The range of applications include

  • Generation of website with uniform look & feel. See the homepage [L1 ] of the expand author, or AK's memchan website at SourceForge [L2 ].
  • Conversion of manpages in a tcl-based markup to HTML, nroff, TMML, etc.
  • Generation and setup of Makefiles for an extension based upon a template.

All of this falls under the broad category of Template and Macro processing.
