1) automake notes

***************************

1) Some notes about using automake/autoconf:

Many of the files you're used to editing by hand are automatically
generated by automake &/or autoconf.  These include any file named
Makefile, Makefile.in, config.h, config.h.in, or configure.

The proper files to modify by hand are configure.in (if there's something
new you need to determine about the host system at configuration time)
and Makefile.am (if source files are added or removed, targets added,
or dependencies changed).

As long as you have autoconf and automake installed on your system, the
Makefiles generated will be able to regenerate any file dependent on a
Makefile.am or configure.in.  To regenerate the build system explicitly,
you need to run the following four commands:

  aclocal; autoheader; automake; autoconf

This list of commands *must* be run after freshly checking a copy of the
project out of CVS -- the files generated automatically are no longer
included in the CVS repository.

I'm happy to help anyone who needs help adjusting the automake/autoconf
build system to suit your development needs...
