| (martin@wobble) /usr/share/autoconf $ g -w SHELL acgeneral.m4
| acgeneral.m4:211:SHELL=${CONFIG_SHELL-/bin/sh}
| acgeneral.m4:699:AC_SUBST(SHELL)dnl
| acgeneral.m4:876:ac_config_guess="$SHELL $ac_aux_dir/config.guess"
| acgeneral.m4:877:ac_config_sub="$SHELL $ac_aux_dir/config.sub"
| acgeneral.m4:878:ac_configure="$SHELL $ac_aux_dir/configure" # This should be Cygnus
|configure.
| acgeneral.m4:2135:test "$no_create" = yes || $SHELL $CONFIG_STATUS || exit 1
| acgeneral.m4:2552: ac_sub_configure="$SHELL $ac_sub_srcdir/configure"
|
| I see. That original SHELL=${CONFIG_SHELL-/bin/sh} is in
| AC_INIT_PARSE_ARGS. Naturally I redefine that... OK, this is the
| price we have to pay.
I'm lost. You are saying we're right, XEmacs is wrong, right?
| I'll just redefine AC_PREREQ(2.13) to be a == test, not a <= test.
Why? Give us a chance to catch up. But first, tell us what use of
SHELL you do.
| The one feature I couldn't switch shells for is the autocd feature.
| If I type the name of a directory, I want to go there - what else can
| you do with a directory?
I don't know, rm -rf? :) I too love this feature.
