Substring function (GMSL)

[Michael Ludwig]

VPATH = 01-eins 02-zwei 03-drei 11-elf

What could I do to transform the VPATH input list
such as to obtain the following output list?

EXEN = eins.exe zwei.exe drei.exe elf.exe

(Strip the leading number and add the suffix.)

Okay, I did some more googling and found a solution
involving the *map* and *substr* functions from GMSL:

include D:/Opt/MakeGMSL/gmsl

dir2exe = $(call substr,$1,4,99).exe

EXEN = $(call map,dir2exe,$(VPATH))

I didn't know about GMSL before. Considered useful.
No further questions for today, just posting for the
archives. Thanks.
