In short, I believe that using _AM_SUBST_NOTMAKE is the best solution, currently. A bit longer answer: though Autoconf 2.60 and newer now supports newlines in AC_SUBSTed values, Automake does not yet support this feature. So you can "offcially" use this feature only when using Autoconf without Automake. If you need this feature in combination with Automake, you have to use the _AM_SUBST_NOTMAKE workaround. I'm sorry for the inconvenience of this state. Hope this helps, Stepan _______________________________________________ Autoconf mailing list Autoconf@xxxxxxx http://lists.gnu.org/mailman/listinfo/autoconf
