Interesting. This fell off my radar. Maybe it would have been better to
file an official ticket. Emails can get lost.

Thank you for your work on Filter.=C2=A0 :-)<br>
<br>
<br>
Attached please find a tarball (Filter-1.60-dpchrist-20211016.tar.gz) <br>
with some changes I made to Filter::cpp to help it work better with Perl <b=
r>
code:<br>
<br>
1.=C2=A0 Added a pre-filter to escape octothorps (&#39;#&#39;) not involved=
 with C <br>
preprocessor control-lines.<br>
<br>
2.=C2=A0 Added a post-filter to unescape octothorps.<br>
<br>
3.=C2=A0 Added an options hash %opt with default values that can be <br>
overridden via Filter::cpp import() arguments.<br>
<br>
4.=C2=A0 Reworked the cpp and sh invocations to use %opt.<br>
<br>
5.=C2=A0 Added a debugging function, _d(), that is controlled by the <br>
DEBUG_FILTER__CPP environment variable and writes debug messages to a <br>
file named after the running script: &quot;$0.debug&quot;.<br>
<br>
6.=C2=A0 Reworked cpp.t to dump variables on test failure, and to keep <br>
generated files on test failure or when debugging is enabled.<br>
<br>
7.=C2=A0 Added generated files to Makefile.PL &#39;clean&#39; target.<br>
<br>
<br>
At this point, all of the test suite except t/z_manifest.t (skipped) <br>
passes on Debian GNU/Linux 9, and Filter::cpp works correctly with a <br>
simple example module (MyLib-0.01-dpchrist-20211016.tar.gz, attached).<br>
<br>
<br>
I would like to contribute my changes to Filter, if you find them <br>
agreeable.=C2=A0 I am willing to learn and help do the work, but am <br>
unfamiliar with the process (CPAN, Git, and/or GitHub).<br>
<br>
<br>
Please advise.<br>
