documentation on using automake to produce documentation

Autotools do a wonderful job producing executable and libraries and it is well documented. Is it documented any where how to do the comparatively simpler task of using automake to produce and distribute documentation? Just simple things like specifying simple rules to build. And how to specify

And the diagnosis for the failure of subdir5.test seems very similar. (In fact, it would have been much simpler to start by analyzing this failure, since it is a much simplified version of the aclocal6.test failure; but shame on me, I just proceded in alphabetical order w.r.t. the test names!) Wh

Removing Mac OS X resource forks from distribution tarballs

Hi When I build distribution tarballs on my Mac sometimes resource forks find their way into the tarball and then when they are extracted on another platform, Debian for example, these resource forks show up as separate files of the for ._*, e.g.: ldg-cert-util-2.5/debian# ls -la total 68 drwxr-x
