The equivalent template in GPM is::

The first argument to ``ifempty`` is the value of the field ``series``. The second argument
is the string ``no series``. In SFM the first argument, the value of the field,
is automatically passed (the invisible argument).
Several template functions, for example ``booksize()`` and ``current_library_name()``, take no arguments.
@ -452,15 +455,15 @@ Because of the 'invisible argument' you cannot use these functions in SFM.
Nested functions, where a function calls another function to compute an argument, cannot be used in SFM.
For example this template, intended to return the first 5 characters of the series value uppercased, won't work in SFM::
{series:uppercase(substr(0,5))}
``{series:uppercase(substr(0,5))}``
TPM and GPM support nested functions. The above template in TPM would be::
{series:'uppercase(substr($, 0,5))'}
``{series:'uppercase(substr($, 0,5))'}``
In TPM it would be::
In GPM it would be::
program: uppercase(substr(field('series'), 0,5))
``program: uppercase(substr(field('series'), 0,5))``
