Version: 2.61

Category: devel
Maintainers: nomaintainer
Platform: darwin
Description: Automatically configures software for compilation

Long 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.
