       libtoolize - add libtool support to your package

SYNOPSIS    [Toc]    [Back]

       libtoolize [OPTION]...

DESCRIPTION    [Toc]    [Back]

       The `libtoolize' program provides a standard way to add libtool support
       to your package.  In the future, it may implement better  usage	checking,
 or other features to make libtool even easier to use.

OPTIONS    [Toc]    [Back]

       libtoolize accepts the following options:

       --automake
	      Work silently, and assume that Automake libtool support is used.

	      `libtoolize --automake' is used by Automake to add libtool files
	      to your package, when `AC_PROG_LIBTOOL' appears in your `configure.in'.


       --copy, -c
	      Copy files from the libtool data directory rather than  creating
	      symlinks.

       --dry-run, -n
	      Don't  run  any commands that modify the file system, just print
	      them out.

       --force, -f
	      Replace existing libtool files.  By default, `libtoolize'  won't
	      overwrite existing files.

       --help Display a help message and exit.

       --ltdl Install libltdl in a subdirectory of your package.

       --ltdl-tar
	      Add the file `libltdl.tar.gz' to your package.

       --version
	      Print `libtoolize' version information and exit.

	      If  `libtoolize' detects an explicit call to `AC_CONFIG_AUX_DIR'
	      in your `configure.in', it will put the files in	the  specified
	      directory.

	      `libtoolize'  displays  hints for adding libtool support to your
	      package, as well.
