8.SH DESCRIPTION
9Run `autoconf' (and `autoheader', `aclocal', `automake', `autopoint'
10(formerly `gettextize'), and `libtoolize' where appropriate)
11repeatedly to remake the GNU Build System files in the DIRECTORIES or
12the directory trees driven by CONFIGURE-AC (defaulting to `.').
13.PP
14By default, it only remakes those files that are older than their
15predecessors.  If you install new versions of the GNU Build System,
16running `autoreconf' remakes all of the files by giving it the
17`--force' option.
