Description-en: 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.
.
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.
.
Optionally, the new package will use a command line parser generator.
Currently, autoproject supports two parser generators: clig by Harald
Kirsch (see http://wsd.iitb.fhg.de/software/), and
autogen by Bruce Korb (see http://autogen.sf.net/).
