automake1.4 | A tool for generating GNU Standards-compliant Makefiles | Mehr ...
Automake is a tool for automatically generating `Makefile.in's from files called `Makefile.am'. . The goal of Automake is to remove the burden of Makefile maintenance from the back of the individual GNU maintainer (and put it on the back of the Automake maintainer). . The `Makefile.am' is basically a series of `make' macro definitions (with rules being thrown in occasionally). The generated `Makefile.in's are compliant with the GNU Makefile standards. . This version of automake is several years out of date and is only provided for compatibility will older software. Please do not use it for new projects.
