Hi Peter,

That works OK, thanks very much! At least I was able to get it to make 
and install.

Now I am having problems with "make dist" ... here are the errors from 
make:

make[2]: Entering directory '/home/bob/code/C++/argpp_autoconf/src'
make[2]: *** No rule to make target 'argppbaseimpl.hpp', needed by 
'distdir'.  Stop.
make[2]: Leaving directory '/home/bob/code/C++/argpp_autoconf/src'
Makefile:482: recipe for target 'distdir' failed
make[1]: *** [distdir] Error 1
make[1]: Leaving directory '/home/bob/code/C++/argpp_autoconf'
Makefile:581: recipe for target 'dist' failed
make: *** [dist] Error 2

But perhaps this should best be asked on the automake list? (BTW in 
configure.ac I changed the AC_INIT command to reflect the "++" in the 
name...)

Thanks again (and HAPPY NEW YEAR to all!)
Bob
