Hello,

While browsing the on-line documentation for Autoconf, I found a point that
could need some added information:

http://www.gnu.org/software/autoconf/manual/autoconf-2.69/html_node/Files.html

The macro AC_CHECK_FILES proposes two actions (if-found and if-not-found), but
it is not clear:
 - are they executed once for each file?
 - or only once in the end?

In the later case (which is what I suppose the behaviour, - but please could
you state explicitly it in the page?), would you mind also specifying that
'action-if-found' is executed only if *all* files are found? (provided it is
the case, of course).

This may sound a bit nit-picking, but I fell it would be better to leave no
point open to interpretation.
