Directive to bind variables to values
This directive expects arguments in the form
NAME0=VALUE0 [TOK0_0 ...] NAME1=VALUE1 [TOK1_0 ...] ...
(without special characters) and replaces all occurrences of ${NAME0} (with the dollar and the braces) in the submitted text by VALUE0 TOK0_0 ... etc. So all tokens that do not contain an = sign are collected into a list of value tokens for NAME0 etc. A token on the line that contains a = starts the list for the next meta-variable NAME1 etc.
All occurences of #${NAME0} (with the hash, the dollar and the braces) are replaced by "VALUE0 TOK0_0 ...", that is the value put inside a C string.
