bake [-chln] [-s <n>] <FILENAME> [ARGS...]; version 20240930

Bake is a simple tool meant to execute embedded shell commands within
any file. It executes with /bin/sh the command after a "@BAKE " to
the end of the line (a UNIX newline: '\n') or to the first instance
of @STOP. All @BAKE ... @STOP statements must become before any @BAKE
... EOLs.

It expands some macros,
  @FILENAME @FILE @NAME - filename
  @SHORT                - filename without suffix (abc.x.txt \-> abc.x)
  @SHORT:N              - removes N suffixes, so (a.b.c 2 -> a)
  @ARGS                 - other arguments to the program
  @ARGS:N               - Provides the Nth argument, starting from
0
  @ARGS:N+              - All arguments at and after Nth
  @RECURS               - the full path name to the executable
  @LINE                 - line number at the selected @BAKE

All  macros  can be  exempted  by  prefixing  them with  a  backslash,
which'll be subtracted in the  expansion. commands may be spanned over
several lines with a leading backslash.

Shake

Bake was inspired by the Bash-based Shake utility (formerly eMake,
he liked my suggestion for a name). It is included under authorization
of its creator. The original version of Shake may be found at:
<http://bis64wqhh3louusbd45iyj76kmn4rzw5ysawyan5bkxwyzihj67c5lid.onion/anon/shake>

Bake includes a modified Shake, optionally installation and as the
old bootstrapper. The modified version includes all features of Bake
with the exceptions of multi-line commands and usable expunge.

Changelog

Bake was created on 2023/09/13, and complete as of 2024/03/02.

Lex. As adviced by the original creator, I learned and implemented
a Bake with lex. It's fully featured, and has new stuff.

- Awake

Egor (some dead guy) made an AWK implementation of Bake, it's POSIX.
It doesn't support multi-line, expunge, parses options after filename,
or changing directory to file's directory - it's compatible with Bake
otherwise. It's the new bootstrapper as AWK should be more portable
to the BSDs.
