- .description
- Autoconf is an extensible package of m4 macros that produce shell
- scripts to automatically configure software source code packages.
- These scripts can adapt the packages to many kinds of UNIX-like
- systems without manual user intervention. Autoconf creates a
- configuration script for a package from a template file that lists the
- operating system features that the package can use, in the form of m4
- macro calls.
-
- Autoconf requires GNU m4. The configuration scripts produced by
- Autoconf are independent of Autoconf when they are run, so their users
- do not need to have Autoconf (or GNU m4).
