2fa1c5c37e * README: Recommend GNU M4 1.4.3 or later.
* doc/autoconf.texi (Introduction): Likewise.
Reword to avoid some formatting glitches.
Use "#!/bin/sh", not "#! /bin/sh"; the space isn't needed these days.
Clarify explanation of HP compiler bug.
Redo example output tp match current CVS snapshot.
Use @example.org in email addresses when the examples
might get inadvertently cut-and-pasted into user code.
Remove example of autom4te usage that doesn't seem to work now.
Use modern AC_INIT (except when the example is meant to be
shown with Autoconf 2.13).
Update ksh info for Solaris 9 and later.
KB -> kB.
Modernize description of Automake versions a bit.
Don't claim a future version of Autoconf is near.
Add [] to examples, so that the manual
follows its own advice about quoting better.
* doc/install.texi: Reword to avoid some formatting glitches.

c0c7469444 Require Perl 5.005_03 instead of just 5.005,
as some tests fail with 5.005_02.

175bb016dd * BUGS: New file.
Be sure to read this file if you're using a non released Autoconf.
* tests/tools.at (Syntax of the scripts): The non built tools are
in `$top_srcdir', not `..'.
(autoconf --trace): When using `-i' we need the src tree, not the
build tree.
