If you need something portable, you want to take a look at GNU libtool... Quoting from the Debian package's description: This is GNU libtool, a generic library support script. Libtool hides the complexity of generating special library types (such as shared libraries) behind a consistent interface. To use libtool, add the new generic library building commands to your Makefile, Makefile.in, or Makefile.am. See the documentation for details. Libtool supports building static libraries on all platforms. I read the info documentation quickly, and it looks quite nice... Christian PS Package's name is "libtool", in section devel of unstable.
