1 Automake is a tool for automatically generating "Makefile.in"s from files
2 called "Makefile.am". The goal of Automake is to remove the burden of Makefile
3 maintenance from the back of the individual GNU maintainer (and put it on the
4 back of the Automake maintainer).
6 The "Makefile.am" is basically a series of "make" macro definitions (with
7 rules being thrown in occasionally). The generated "Makefile.in"s are
8 compliant with the GNU Makefile standards.
