It is great that aclocal/autoconf can now m4_include multiple files from a local m4/-subdirectory. Yet, I was missing a tool to populate it. A while back I just modified the standard aclocal to do that - i.e. instead of --ouput=FILE using an --output-dir=DIR. However, as far as I can see, the current cvs aclocal.in was not extended as such. That's sad, especially given how easy it is do add. So, I did return to my earlier acinclude tool (which itself is based on some very old aclocal version). Applying a similar patch I am now symlinking it to be "acincludedir" which does populate some project-local m4/ subdirectory with autoconf macros from a site-local macro repository. It works similar to the old acinclude. You can find the documentation at http://ac-archive.sourceforge.net/doc/acincludedir.html The source code is present in the download tarball of the AC-archive. Which does now carry some more tools that you might like. Please test and report any problems, thank you, -- Guido _______________________________________________ Autoconf mailing list Autoconf@xxxxxxx http://lists.gnu.org/mailman/listinfo/autoconf
