23 Autom4te::General - general support functions for Autoconf and Automake

27 use Autom4te::General
29 =head1 DESCRIPTION
31 This perl module provides various general purpose support functions
32 used in several executables of the Autoconf and Automake packages.

80 incorrect execution.

90 the output files are obsolete.
