@cindex porting
Each GAS target specifies two main things: the CPU file and the object format
-file. Two main switches in the @file{configure.in} file handle this. The
+file. Two main switches in the @file{configure.ac} file handle this. The
first switches on CPU type to set the shell variable @code{cpu_type}. The
second switches on the entire target to set the shell variable @code{fmt}.
