Is there a macro, e.g., AM_SOURCE_SYMLINK( ../common/tester.c ), that will
create symbolic link(s) to source files residing in a separate directory?
Or, if I am looking at this the wrong way, can someone suggest an alternate
way of achieving this using the Autotools?
That sounds like a nice feature. For GraphicsMagick (which needs this
capability) I distribute a slightly modified version of the old X11
'lndir' shell script and invoke it via an automake 'hook'. This
approach seems to work fine.
