The normal way to add a new directory is to add AC_CONFIG_FILES([dir/Makefile]) to configure.ac, write dir/Makefile.am, and add something like SUBDIRS += dir to a Makefile.am above dir (or sub/../dir if more than one level above). Then, unless you have maintainer-mode turned off, just run 'make'.[1] Which part of this does not work for you, or which part is it that you would like to make easier for the developer? BTW, mentioning that 'dir' directory name literally in configure.ac is important for automake to enable rebuilding rules, see 'info Automake Requirements'. > 2) new autoconf directories: I'd like to understand your use case in (1) first.
