syscmd Executes the HP-UX system command given in the first argument. No value is
returned.
sysval Is the return code from the last call to syscmd.
traceoff Turns off trace globally and for any macros specified. Macros specifically traced by
traceon can be untraced only by specific calls to traceoff.
traceon With no arguments, turns on tracing for all macros (including built-ins). Otherwise,
turns on tracing for named macros.
translit Transliterates the characters in its first argument from the set given by the second
argument to the set given by the third. No abbreviations are permitted.
undefine Removes the definition of the macro named in its argument.
undivert Causes immediate output of text from diversions named as arguments, or all diversions
if no argument. Text may be undiverted into another diversion. Undiverting discards
the diverted text.
(XPG4 only.) It is an error to specify an argument containing any non-numeric character for the built-in-
macros: decr, divert, incr, m4exit,
substr, undivert, and eval.
