It was inspired +by the 4.4BSD make and include files, but aims to be portable and to +conform to the GNU standards for Makefile variables and targets. + +It's a preprocessor shell script. The input files are called +Makefile.am and the output files are called Makefile.in, which are +suitable for use with Autoconf. + +Variable assignment lines in the input Makefile.am pull in defaults +from various little *.am files. + +- David MacKenzie
