I would like to add a way to create Makefile.am's for autotools in Upp so the source release will be more portable.

I thought of a Makefile per Package:
So eg Core gets a Makefile.am and CtrlLib etc
which will output a Library eg

 noinst_LIBRARIS=Core.a
 Core_a_SOURCES= ....

Then the Packages just will have to use the libraries like

 bin_PROGRAMMS=theide
 theide_SOURCES=...
 theide_LDADD=../Core/Core.a

For me it is still a problem how to deal with .icpp files.
Mirek introduced them to be files that always have to be recompiled (mostly files including language stuff or database definitions etc) so there should be a way to compile them *every* time and include the objects into the source.

Information/Code/Suggestions etc are very welcome,

Bas
