AC_ARG_WITH() is probably the most-used solution for this, where you let the user supply a path name as the argument, and where the option will be documented in ./configure --help. AC_ARG_WITH([css-files], [AS_HELP_STRING([--with-css-files], [location of css files to use with generated html])], [ ... set your variable to the user's provided string ... ], [ ... default your variable to your in-tree location ... ]) lets the end user do ./configure --with-css-files=/path/to/alternate -- Eric Blake eblake redhat com +1-919-301-3266 Libvirt virtualization library http://libvirt.org
