.SH NAME
autoreconf \- Update generated configuration files
.SH SYNOPSIS
.B autoreconf
[\fIOPTION\fR] ... [\fICONFIGURE-AC or DIRECTORY\fR] ...
.SH DESCRIPTION
Run `autoconf' (and `autoheader', `aclocal', `automake', `gettextize',
and `libtoolize' where appropriate) repeatedly to remake the GNU Build
System files in the DIRECTORIES or the directory trees driven by
CONFIGURE-AC (defaulting to `.').
.PP
By default, it only remakes those files that are older than their
predecessors. If you install new versions of the GNU Build System,
running `autoreconf' remakes all of the files by giving it the
`--force' option.
