This is while developing Bismon (a GPLv3+ static source code analyzer leveraging above GCC on Linux; see https://github.com/bstarynk/bismon/ for the source code, and http://starynkevitch.net/Basile/bismon-chariot-doc.pdf for a DRAFT report describing it.


It would be nice to have in GNU make something inspired by GCC magical macros: _FILE_, _LINE_, and _COUNT_

We could have a GNU make textual function $(this_file) which would expand to the current file name (e.g. to 'Makefile`). And a GNU make textual function $(this_line) expanded to the current file number. And a GNU make textual function $(this_counter) expanded to  a unique counter (incremented at each invokation).
