AUTOCONF !!!AUTOCONF NAME SYNOPSIS DESCRIPTION SEE ALSO AUTHORS ---- !!NAME autoscan2.13 - help to create a configure.in file for a software package !!SYNOPSIS __autoscan2.13__ [[ __--help__ ] [[ __--macrodir=dir__ ] [[ __--verbose__ ] [[ __--version__ ] !!DESCRIPTION The __autoscan2.13__ program can help you create a __configure.in__ file for a software package. __autoscan2.13__ examines source files in the directory tree rooted at a directory given as a command line argument, or the current directory if none is given. It searches the source files for common portability problems and creates a file __configure.scan__ which is a preliminary __configure.in__ for that package. You should manually examine __configure.scan__ before renaming it to __configure.in__; it will probably need some adjustments. Occasionally __autoscan2.13__ outputs a macro in the wrong order relative to another macro, so that __autoconf2.13__ produces a warning; you need to move such macros manually. Also, if you want the package to use a configuration header file, you must add a call to __AC_CONFIG_HEADER__. You might also have to change or add some __#if__ directives to your program in order to make it work with Autoconf (see ifnames2.13(1)), for information about a program that can help with that job). __autoscan2.13__ uses several data files, which are installed along with the distributed Autoconf macro files, to determine which macros to output when it finds particular symbols in a package's source files. These files all have the same format. Each line consists of a symbol, whitespace, and the Autoconf macro to output if that symbol is encountered. Lines starting with __#__ are comments. __autoscan2.13__ requires that a Perl interpreter is installed. __autoscan2.13__ accepts the following options: __--help__ __-h__ Print a summary of the command line options and exit. __--macrodir=DIR__ __-m DIR__ Look for the installed macro files in directory DIR. You can also set the __AC_MACRODIR__ environment variable to a directory; this option overrides the environment variable. __--verbose__ Print the names of the fiels it examines and the potentially interesting symbols it finds in them. This output can be voluminous. __--version__ Print the version number of Autoconf and exit. !!SEE ALSO autoconf2.13(1), __autoheader2.13__(1), autoreconf2.13(1), __autoupdate2.13__(1), ifnames2.13(1) !!AUTHORS David !MacKenzie, with help from Franc,ois Pinard, Karl Berry, Richard Pixley, Ian Lance Taylor, Roland !McGrath, Noah Friedman, David D.
