.SH NAME
|
|
autom4te \- Generate files and scripts thanks to M4
|
|
.SH SYNOPSIS
|
|
.B autom4te
|
|
[\fIOPTION\fR] ... [\fIFILES\fR]
|
|
.SH DESCRIPTION
|
|
Run GNU M4 on the FILES, avoiding useless runs. Output the traces if tracing,
|
|
the frozen file if freezing, otherwise the expansion of the FILES.
|
|
.PP
|
|
If some of the FILES are named `FILE.m4f' they are considered to be M4
|
|
frozen files of all the previous files (which are therefore not loaded).
|
|
If `FILE.m4f' is not found, then `FILE.m4' will be used, together with
|
|
all the previous files.
|
|
.PP
|
|
Some files may be optional, i.e., will only be processed if found in the
|
|
include path, but then must end in `.m4?'; the question mark is not part of
|
|
the actual file name.
