right - however for its nature, bakefile's autoconf format simply
ignores any wx-lib tag. It's the task of the configure script to detect
which libs are available in which format, etc.
Thus it's the configure script that sets up the WX_LIBS variable

yes exactly!!
this is where you should add the list of wx libs you need for autoconf
format; e.g.:
AM_WXCODE_CHECKS([2.4.0], [stc,html,adv])
The comments look clear to me since I wrote them :D
What exactly is unclear in it? Maybe that same (e.g. "xml,net,adv") is a
little misleading?

I tried to make all autoconf macros as ordered as possible but M4 script
language is a bit cryptic itself so they are not very readable
unfortunately...

it does a lot of stuff actually - it detects the installed wx builds on
the user's system, looks at the configure options given by the user and
then tries to find a good matching eventually giving out a nice error
message.
The libraries which it substitutes to WX_LIBS are those passed to
AM_WXCODE_CHECKS + base,core as documented.
