Subject: TRANSFORM = s,x,x,
Date: Sun, 14 Nov 2021 08:32:22 +0800	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <CAGP6PO+7BxAmC1fsiCkT7bOKHvZqbO_aXMRNJ8oK4QMt-CD6vw@mail.gmail.com> (raw)

In the Makefile of Emacs, there is the following code:

# Program name transformation.
TRANSFORM = s,x,x,

But I really can't figure out the effect of this transformation, as
shown in the following example:

$ echo emacs-29.0.50 | sed 's,x,x,'
emacs-29.0.50

As you can see, this transformation does nothing.

Any hints for this problem?

Regards,
