Salam, The source code section looks very informative now :). Some new points:
* In Example 1 in the Source Section, in the bootstrap script, you better change automake17 to automake. * I spent the last weekend reading the "info autoconf" and "info automake" back to back! I applied whatever I found proper on BiCon. You may refer people to BiCon for a clean autoconfiscated (yes, that's the word!) project. * I also wrote a more sophisticated bootstrap for BiCon that takes advantage of the autoreconf script (which kinda replaces bootstrap!). Here: http://cvs.arabeyes.org/viewcvs/projects/bicon/bootstrap?rev=HEAD&content-type=text/vnd.viewcvs-markup BTW, I have started adding RCS headers too. The only disadvantage with them is that when you commit, the file is changed, so the build system is triggered... BTW, I decided not to put the $Author: $ tag, as it's misleading that the last commiter is shown as the author. And the info is there in $Id: $ if you really want to know who commited last time... behdad On Tue, 13 Apr 2004, Mohammed Elzubeir wrote: > Salam, > > After several changes and outcries from different developers, > the Developer Guide [1] is now declared in effect.
