I would prefer to use the available programming languages directly
instead of starting the spatch program for such file generation.

Would you like to continue the clarification for the topic ?Configuration
or escaping of @ characters for embedded programming language scripts??

But I imagine that I would like to show related update suggestions
around SmPL scripts because of other approaches then.
Will alternatives become useful?

Would you like to point any specific source files out for the current
intermediate development status?
