+ * autoconf.texi (Pretty Help Strings): Document and regenerate the
+ indices.
+ * acgeneral.m4 (AC_HELP_STRING): New macro.
+
* NEWS: Begin documenting "Major changes" for release 2.14.
* acconfig.h (F77_FUNC): Add.
* Matthew D. Langston's suggestions:
+** Change all of Autoconf's macros that print a help string via
+ "configure --help" to use new AC_HELP_STRING macro.
+
** Ensure that "make check" uses only the files from the build tree. It
currently uses some of the installed files from previously installed
versions of Autoconf, like autoheader.m4f.
