Make install-sh work even when names contain spaces or certain (but not all) shell metachars. * lib/install-sh: Remove lots of unnecessary quoting. Add double quotes where necessary. Write diagnostics to stderr, not stdout. Normalize spacing in diagnostics: use one space (not two, and not a TAB) after the leading `install:'. Remove trailing white space. Remove unnecessary curly braces. If removing the destination fails, also try to move it aside. Use `trap' more portably.
This is Automake, a Makefile generator. It was inspired by the 4.4BSD make and include files, but aims to be portable and to conform to the GNU standards for Makefile variables and targets. Automake is a Perl script. The input files are called Makefile.am. The output files are called Makefile.in; they are intended for use with Autoconf. Automake requires certain things to be done in your configure.in. Variable assignment lines in Makefile.am pull in defaults from various little *.am files. To use Automake, replace your Makefile.in files with Makefile.am files. Read the documentation to see what to do. This package also includes the "aclocal" program. aclocal is a program to generate an `aclocal.m4' based on the contents of `configure.in'. It is useful as an extensible, maintainable mechanism for augmenting autoconf. It is intended that other package authors will write m4 macros which can be automatically used by aclocal. The mailing list automake@gnu.org is for discussion of Automake, Autoconf, and other configuration/portability tools (e.g., libtool). Write to automake-request@gnu.org if you want to join. Automake has a page on the web.
