want to trace, they might stupidly invoke the program named
`autoconf' instead. Pfff, stupid scripts :)
* Makefile.am (editsh): Transfer the names of the install
`autoconf' and `autoheader'.
* autoconf.sh: Add a missing period at the end of the comment
# Parse command line
Make sure to have a ChangeLog much longer than the patch.
* autoheader.sh: Use the right `autoconf'.
* autoupdate.sh: Likewise.
* autoreconf.sh: Likewise, and for `autoheader' too.
Simplify the handling of localdir and AC_MACRODIR.
* ifnames.sh: Formatting changes.
This is important if you want to redefine AC_INIT or some of its
sub macros (eeerk!), or if you want to use user defined macros
before AC_INIT.
Suggested by Didier Verna.
* acgeneral.m4 (_AC_INIT): Don't include `acsite.m4' and
`aclocal.m4'.
* autoconf.sh (run_m4, run_m4f): Do it.
* autoheader.sh: No longer try to select the needed paragraphs of
`acconfig.h', just dump everything into `config.h.in'.
Implement support for `--warnings'.
Warn the users that these auxiliary files are obsolete when `-W
obsolete'.
* doc/autoconf.texi (Invoking autoheader): Adjust.
Reported by Jim Meyering.
* autoheader.sh: Trace AC_DEFINE and AC_DEFINE_UNQUOTED to build
the list of $syms which are defined.
* tests/tools.m4 (autoheader): New test.
* acgeneral.m4 (_AC_SH_QUOTE): Don't double quote. Escape the
double quotes too.
(_AC_ECHO_UNQUOTED): Don't double quote :).
(_AC_ECHO, _AC_ECHO_N): Quote the call to _AC_SH_QUOTE.
The autoheader chain needs to be adjusted.
* acgeneral.m4 (AH_VERBATIM): Just pass two arguments to AH_OUTPUT
instead of trying to build what `autoheader' needs: let it handle
the format by itself.
* autoheader.m4: Adjust.
s,tmp/config.h,tmp/config.hin.
The adjustment revealed that `autoconf --trace' is not robust to
single quotes in its argument.
* autoconf.sh: Fix this issue.
Rename the escape `$*' as `$%'. Implement `$@'.
* doc/autoconf.texi: Adjust.
changing value. On the `configure' script of the fileutils:
mawk '{ sub (/foo/, foo++) }' -> 14s.
mawk '{ if ($0 ~ /foo/) sub (/foo/, foo++) }' -> 0.03s.
mawk '{ sub (/foo/, foo) }' -> 0.03s.
* autoconf.sh (task script, AWK script): Run `sub (__oline__,
oline)' only in the lines that match `__oline__'.
Suggested by Paul Eggert.
Use `#' to denote Autoconf comments, not `dnl'.
Put a few `' here and there to avoid misfontification and
misindentation.
Use your base name when reporting errors.
(parse_args::usage): Use $0, use the same order as the other
executables.
(parse_args): Don't dump `--help' on cmd line errors.
* autoheader.m4: Dispatch the prototypes next to there AC_
siblings.
(AH_TEMPLATE, AH_VERBATIM): Move to...
* acgeneral.m4: here.
(AH_OUTPUT): New macro.
* autoheader.sh: Run `autoconf --trace' instead of `m4 autoheader.m4'.
* autoheader.m4: Remove.
* Makefile.am: Adjust.
* tests/tools.m4 (AH_DEFUN): Remove, no longer makes sense.
* tests/actests.m4 (autoheader::AC_TATOOINE): Remove, was used by
the test above.
* autoconf.sh: Use it when possible to create the dir $tmp.
Stop using variables for tmp files, use their names in $tmp.
[install]: Use the new features of autoconf --trace.
to systems without a real /dev/stderr in the file system or if not
using one of the three free awks. Use
print message | "cat >&2"
...
END { close("cat >&2") }
From Aharon Robbins.
record, this is not portable: mawk and nawk understand it as RS =
"". gawk understands it as expected.
* autoconf.sh (translate_awk::BEGIN): No longer change RS.
(translate_awk::body): Move to the END.
Instead, accumulate the input in `request'.
file names.
(translate_awk::BEGIN): Set RS to "0" so that the whole file be a
single record.
(translate_awk::trans): Convert from array to function.
(translate_awk::error): New function.
(translate_awk::main action): Implement support for ${sep}@ and
${sep}*. Use trans() and error().
(translate_awk): Don't put space before user functions call, it is
not portable.
Remove trailing `;', this is not C :).
(task trace): Quote `$traces' when you eval it, to protect the
white spaces.
Propagate `translate_awk' failures to `autoconf.sh'.
Translate the quadrigraphs.
* autoheader.sh: s/-eq/=/.
Uniform ordering of variable initializations, option handling.
Don't use quotes where useless (foo=$1, not foo="$1").
Propagate `run_m4' and `run_m4f'.
Use `$0' in --help.
* autoconf.sh: Likewise.
* autoreconf.sh: Likewise.
* autoupdate.sh: Likewise.
* ifnames.sh: Likewise.
* autoupdate.m4: Small bug: at the end `dnl' is disabled, so use
`m4_dnl'.
