[Tuxmath-devel] Tuxmath now at rev 45 - autogen.sh added

Hi Holger,

I put in autogen.sh as above and tested to see what files are autogenerated by 
autogen.sh and configure.  As a result, I removed several files from svn:

D    trunk/configure
D    trunk/Makefile.in
D    trunk/src/Makefile.in
D    trunk/config.sub
D    trunk/missing
M    trunk/Makefile
D    trunk/aclocal.m4

Now tuxmath builds with "./autogen.sh && ./configure && make && make install".  
I do get a warning when aclocal runs:

dbruce@debian:~/tuxmath/trunk$ ./autogen.sh
/usr/share/aclocal/smpeg.m4:13: warning: underquoted definition of 
AM_PATH_SMPEG
  run info '(automake)Extending aclocal'
  or see http://sources.redhat.com/automake/automake.html#Extending-aclocal
/usr/share/aclocal/glib.m4:8: warning: underquoted definition of AM_PATH_GLIB
configure.in: installing `./missing'
configure.in:7: installing `./config.sub'

Not sure (yet) what to do about these warnings.

I'm pretty sure that is the solution, once I figure out how to do it.

On another topic, I've noticed that the options file in the new Windows 
version is not really human readable, I think because of the difference in 
how Unix and Windows handle new lines in text files.  I will need to modify 
the file-writing somehow so it comes out human-readable in Windows - ideas, 
anyone?

Cheers,
