I'm afraid I don't understand your question fully. You would like to build an executable? If yes, then something like bin_PROGRAMS = foo in Makefile.am helps (don't forget to specify foo_SOURCES). If you need to execute 'foo' after building it, you can do so in an 'all-local' makefile rule you supply (it's a good idea to have the rule depend on 'foo$(EXEEXT)' in that case). If you want to execute some command after building, installing, or similar, the '*-local' or '*-hook' rules may be what you're after: http://sources.redhat.com/automake/automake.html#Extending Otherwise please describe in more detail ("when I do this it should do that") what you need. Cheers, Ralf
