I have an include file (named 'my_include.am') that I want to append

Is there any simple way to do that ?
Not really. But if you already have one such include, and want to
include another fragment, then you should be able to add that to the
first fragment. Note however that paths do not work file-recursively,
so the inner include should use a path starting in $(top_srcdir).
Hope that helps.

Thanks for the reply, but this is not what I'm looking for.
Lets say that the file "my_include.am" declares a rule to generate
documentation :
$cat my_include.am
doc :
INPUT=. doxygen doxygen.cfg
Now, I wish to include this rule in every Makefile generated from
Makefile.in that are themselves generated from Makefile.am.
A simple solution would be to include "my_include.am" in all Makefile.am
as follow :
head -n 1 ./src/Makefile.am
include $(top_srcdir)/my_include.am
head -n 1 ./src/tools/Makefile.am
include $(top_srcdir)/my_include.am
However, I don't want to add the "include" instruction in the
Makefile.am, in fact, I don't want to modify those files at all.
My question is : is there any way to get the same result by modifying
another automake's config file, like configure.ac for instance ?
