the python preprocessor version, the techfiles and .magicrc file
will get the correct arguments, without affecting the use of CPP
in the configure script.
python3 preprocessor is captured in the variable MCPP, not CPP,
since CPP is meaningful to the make process. Also, the
MAGICDIR variable in the name needed to be escaped so that the
variable is not evaluated within the configure script.
development had been halted since it was first created back in April.
Version 8.2 is now the official development version, with the first
development push to create a Cairo graphics interface.
