Subject: autoproject 0.20
After too long a delay, I'm releasing a new version of autoproject.
Here are recent entries in the changelog:
2006-02-25 James R. Van Zandt <jrv@xxxxxxxxxx>
* configure.in: version 0.20
* lib/cli/c/autogen/checkopt.def (flag): add short options for
everything, to work around bug in .tpl file.
* lib/cli/all/autogen/manpage.tpl: Add missing quotes in manpage
description for --help and --more-help.
* lib/cli/c++/none/xmalloc.c: eliminate references to error.h and
error(), to eliminate dependency on GNU libc.
2005-11-20 James R. Van Zandt <jrv@xxxxxxxxxx>
* configure.in: version 0.19
* lib/cli/c++/none/program.cc: eliminate multi-line strings
(thanks to Mario Lang <mlang@xxxxxxxxxx>)
* README: update author's email

2004-09-11 James R. Van Zandt <jrv@xxxxxxxxxx>
* autoproject.lsm.in (Alternate-site): update site addresses and email
2003-04-29 James R. Van Zandt <jrv@xxxxxxxxxx>

2002-11-18 James R. Van Zandt <jrv@xxxxxxxxxx>
* lib/cli/c/clig/Makefile.am (foo_SOURCES): include cmdline.h, so
it's distributed.
* cmdline.c depends on cmdline.cli.in instead of cmdline.cli, so
it's not remade every time the user runs configure (since it
requires clig which the user may not have installed) (thanks to
Alexandre Duret-Lutz <duret_g@xxxxxxxxxxxxx>).
2002-11-16 James R. Van Zandt <jrv@xxxxxxxxxx>
* lib/cli/c/autogen/Makefile.am (bin_PROGRAMS): with autogen,
include foo-opt.h file in SOURCES.

from README:
autoproject - create a skeleton source package for a new program
autoproject interviews the user, then creates a source package for a
new program which follows the GNU programming standards. The new
package uses autoconf to configure itself, and automake to create the
Makefile. `make distcheck' succeeds.
The idea is that you execute autoproject just once when you start a
new project. It will ask a few questions, then create a new directory
and populate it with standard files, customized for the new project.
The version number for the new program is initialized as 0.1.0, and is
set in configure.in. It is available in C programs as the macro
VERSION, and in the Makefile as $(VERSION).
Optionally, the new package will use an external command line parser
or a parser generator. Currently, autoproject supports:
argp by Miles Bader, included in GNU C Library 2.1
clig by Harald Kirsch <kirschh@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx>
(see http://wsd.iitb.fhg.de/~kir/clighome/)
autogen by Bruce Korb <bkorb@xxxxxxx>
(see http://AutoGen.SourceForge.net/autoopts/)
I would like to support graphical user interface (GUI) as well as
command line interface (CLI) programs, but I have very little
experience with them. Contributions would be welcome.
