Yes Tom, I was not aware of the existence of defindex! Thanks for
this patch Pavel.

Correct.
| Yes. I was 99.9% sure, but since you asked I wrote this script and it
| makes me 100% sure.
|
| #! /usr/bin/perl -w
| $_ = "\@defcodeindex fu";
| /^\@def(code)?index (\w+)/;
| print "\$1 = $1, \$2 = $2\n";
| $_ = "\@defindex fu";
| /^\@def(code)?index (\w+)/;
| print "\$1 = $1, \$2 = $2\n";
|
| Output:
|
| $1 = code, $2 = fu
| Use of uninitialized value in concatenation (.) at ./test line 7.
| $1 = , $2 = fu
Depending upon the cases, I either use "$1 || ''" or
/^\@def((?:code)?)index (\w+)/;
but in the present case we don't need $1, do we? In this case, I try
not to use it, i.e.,
/^\@def(?:code)?index (\w+)/;

I would like to move the documentation into doc/ in Automake. OK with
that? Same problem as for *.am files, Tom, we need to move them on
the CVS server if we want to keep the history.
Oh, BTW, when you move *.am files into lib/am, you should also move
the other library files into lib/. I would suggest lib/config (yes,
because I also promote AC_CONFIG_AUX_DIR(config/) and I know this is
controversial), in which we'd put config.guess etc.
