Hey Peter, That looks good, but I really like the AC_CONFIG_FILES approach because I think it looks cleaner. If I went your method it would be similar, but I'd probably use sed instead. What I ended up coming up with seems to work, albeit it is a bit ugly. SYSCONFDIR=`test "$prefix" = NONE && prefix=$ac_default_prefix; eval echo "${sysconfdir}"` AC_SUBST([sysconfdir], [$SYSCONFDIR]) AC_CONFIG_FILES([myfile]) -- Kip Warner -- Senior Software Engineer OpenPGP encrypted/signed mail preferred http://www.thevertigo.com
