%general-entities; ]> Automake Prepare Automake for compilation: ./configure --prefix=/usr Compile the package: make To test the results, issue: make check. This takes a long time, about 5 SBUs. Install the package: make install Installed programs acinstall, aclocal, aclocal-1.8, automake, automake-1.8, compile, config.guess, config.sub, depcomp, elisp-comp, install-sh, mdate-sh, missing, mkinstalldirs, py-compile, symlink-tree, ylwrap acinstall acinstall is a script that installs aclocal-style M4 files. aclocal aclocal generates aclocal.m4 files based on the contents of configure.in files. automake automake is a tool for automatically generating Makefile.in's from files called Makefile.am. To create all the Makefile.in files for a package, run this program in the top-level directory. By scanning the configure.ins it automatically finds each appropriate Makefile.am and generate the corresponding Makefile.in. compile compile is a wrapper for compilers. config.guess config.guess is a script that attempts to guess the canonical triplet for the given build, host, or target architecture. config.sub config.su is a configuration validation subroutine script. depcomp depcomp is a script for compiling a program so that not only the desired output is generated, but also dependency information. elisp-comp elisp-comp byte-compiles Emacs Lisp code. install-sh install-sh is a script that installs a program, a script, or a datafile. mdate-sh mdate-sh is a script that prints the modification time of a file or directory. missing missing is a script acting as a common stub for missing GNU programs during an installation. mkinstalldirs mkinstalldirs is a script that creates a directory tree. py-compile py-compile compiles a Python program. symlink-tree symlink-tree is a script to create a symlink tree of a directory tree. ylwrap ylwrap is a wrapper for lex and yacc.
