Hacking It Yourself ==================================================
As distributed, Guile needs only an ANSI C compiler and a Unix system
to compile. However, Guile's makefiles, configuration scripts, and a
few other files are automatically generated, not written by hand. If
you want to make changes to the system (which we encourage!) you will
find it helpful to have the tools we use to develop Guile. They
are the following:
Autoconf 2.12 --- a system for automatically generate `configure'
scripts from templates which list the non-portable features a
program would like to use. Available in
"ftp://prep.ai.mit.edu/pub/gnu".
Automake 1.1l --- a system for automatically generating Makefiles that
conform to the (rather Byzantine) GNU coding standards. The
nice thing is that it takes care of hairy targets like 'make
dist' and 'make distclean', and automatically generates
Makefile dependencies. Available in
"ftp://ftp.cygnus.com/pub/tromey".
libtool 0.7 --- a system for managing the zillion hairy options needed
on various systems to produce shared libraries. Available in
"http://casual1.enci.ucalgary.ca/~gord/src/".
Authors And Contributors =============================================
Many people have generously contributed to Guile. However, any errors
