43.1.2 Including macros and
variables in system commands
System commands can include
the following:
- DITA2Go macro expressions
- macro variables you have defined
in [MacroVariables].
- the following predefined macro
variables (see §37.3.4
Using predefined macro variables):
<$$_basename>
|
Base file name (without path or extension) of the
current DITA source file
|
<$$_currpath>
|
Path (without trailing slash) to the current directory
where the configuration file resides
|
<$$_macroparam>
|
Value of a parameter passed to the enclosing macro.
|
<$$_prjpath>
|
Path (without trailing slash) to the directory where
the map file resides
|
Predefined macro variables other than those listed
here do not work in system commands. Macro variable <$$_macroparam>
can be used only within a macro; see §37.7
Passing a parameter to a macro.
Include macro expressions
You can use macro expressions in system commands:
math and string manipulations, conditional expressions, loops, formatted
output, and so forth; see §37.6
Using expressions in macros.
