| File Description |
Automatic configuration script produced by GNU Autoconf; automatically configures software source code packages to adapt to several types of Posix-like systems; created by testing a software package for each feature the program might need in order to run a specific system; Autoconf then builds a list of system features that the package requires.
Autoconf scripts are typically named "configure.ac;" the automatic configuration script is created by running the preprocessor program m4 with the configure.ac file as input. |
