porting with autotools

[Reuben Hawkins]

Hi All,

I'm porting a large Windows toolkit to Linux, OSX, etc.  Is there a
tool which will walk my directory structure outputting Makefile.am in
each directory where needed?

If not, is there any reason to not write code to do just that?  I was
thinking output a Makefile.am in each dir which has source in this
format...

noist_LTLIBRARIES = lib<dir_name>.la

lib<dir_name>_la_SOURCES = <source files in this directory>

Any thoughts would be appreciated.

Thanks,
Reuben
