Re: Doxygen and Autotools

[Lorenzo Bettini]

Thanks John, I'll take a look (actually I had already seen your online 
book, but not the part on doxygen).

However, I think that some macro/base functionality should be provided 
in autotools, and I read in this very list that the autoconf macro does 
not work well...

cheers
