| .TH AUTORECONF "1" "April 2012" "GNU Autoconf 2.68b.22-280f-dirty" "User Commands" |
| .SH NAME |
| autoreconf \- Update generated configuration files |
| .SH SYNOPSIS |
| .B autoreconf |
| [\fIOPTION\fR]... [\fIDIRECTORY\fR]... |
| .SH DESCRIPTION |
| Run `autoconf' (and `autoheader', `aclocal', `automake', `autopoint' |
| (formerly `gettextize'), and `libtoolize' where appropriate) |
| repeatedly to remake the GNU Build System files in specified |
| DIRECTORIES and their subdirectories (defaulting to `.'). |
| .PP |
| By default, it only remakes those files that are older than their |
| sources. If you install new versions of the GNU Build System, |
| you can make `autoreconf' remake all of the files by giving it the |
| `\-\-force' option. |
