GNU AutoGen Version 5.8.1/AutoOpts Version 27.0

GNU AutoGen/AutoOpts is a two-part project that serves two separate
purposes and are inextricably intertwined:

AutoGen is a tool designed to simplify the creation and maintenance of
programs that contain large amounts of repetitious text.  It is
especially valuable in programs that have several blocks of text that
must be kept synchronized.

AutoOpts is both an example of that and a project in its own right.
It is a very powerful command line option parser consisting of a set
of AutoGen templates and a run time library that nearly eliminates
the hassle of managing, parsing and documenting program options.

New in 5.8.1 - January, 2006

Here are the 'NEWS' entries since the last release

* Cleaned up anonymous mmap usage.  Fixes test failure.
* In the tests, use full paths to built programs as much as possible.
  Fixes some test failures on some platforms.
