33 Emacs. |

35 The file `configure' is a shell script to acclimate Emacs to the | |
36 oddities of your processor and operating system. It creates the file | |
37 `Makefile' (a script for the `make' program), which automates the | |
38 process of building and installing Emacs. See INSTALL for more | |
39 detailed information. | |
40 | |
41 The file `configure.in' is the input used by the autoconf program to | |
36268 | 42 construct the `configure' script. Since Emacs has some configuration |
43 requirements that autoconf can't meet directly, and for historical | |
44 reasons, `configure.in' uses an unholy marriage of custom-baked | |
45 configuration code and autoconf macros. If you want to rebuild | |
46 `configure' from `configure.in', you will need to install a recent | |
47 version of autoconf and GNU m4. | |

25856 | 49 The file `Makefile.in' is a template used by `configure' to create |
50 `Makefile'. | |

52 The file `make-dist' is a shell script to build a distribution tar | |
53 file from the current Emacs tree, containing only those files | |
54 appropriate for distribution. If you make extensive changes to Emacs, | |
55 this script will help you distribute your version to others. | |
