NAME
       autoreconf - Update generated configuration files

SYNOPSIS
       autoreconf-2.62 [OPTION] ... [DIRECTORY] ...

DESCRIPTION
       Run `autoconf-2.62' (and `autoheader-2.62', `aclocal', `automake-2.62',
       `autopoint' (formerly `gettextize'), and `libtoolize'  where  appropri-
       ate)  repeatedly  to  remake  the  GNU  Build System files in specified
       DIRECTORIES and their subdirectories (defaulting to `.').

       By default, it only remakes those  files  that  are  older  than  their
       sources.   If you install new versions of the GNU Build System, you can
       make `autoreconf-2.62' remake  all  of  the  files  by  giving  it  the
       `--force' option.

   Operation modes:
       -h, --help
	      print this help, then exit

       -V, --version
	      print version number, then exit

       -v, --verbose
	      verbosely report processing

       -d, --debug

       --no-recursive

       -s, --symlink
	      with -i, install symbolic links instead of copies

       -m, --make
	      when applicable, re-run ./configure && make

       -W, --warnings=CATEGORY
	      report the warnings falling in CATEGORY [syntax]

   Warning categories include:
       `cross'
	      cross compilation issues
