and download the text of "GNU autoconf, automake, and libtool" by Gary Vaughan, et al. It's really quite good, and the text is under the Open Publication License. New Riders publishes the paperback 'real' book. It was published originally in October 2000, so it should be relatively up to date. Hope this helps!
