1 Autoconf is an extensible package of M4 macros that produce shell scripts to
2 automatically configure software source code packages. These scripts can adapt
3 the packages to many kinds of UNIX-like systems without manual user
4 intervention. Autoconf creates a configuration script for a package from a
5 template file that lists the operating system features that the package can use,
6 in the form of M4 macro calls.
