41 #
42 # Usage: GUILE_PROGS
43 #
44 # This macro looks for programs @code{guile}, @code{guile-config} and
45 # @code{guile-tools}, and sets variables @var{GUILE}, @var{GUILE_CONFIG} and
46 # @var{GUILE_TOOLS}, to their paths, respectively. If either of the first two
47 # is not found, signal error.
48 #
49 # The variables are marked for substitution, as by @code{AC_SUBST}.

67 #
68 # Usage: GUILE_FLAGS
69 #
70 # This macro runs the @code{guile-config} script, installed with Guile, to
71 # find out where Guile's header files and libraries are installed. It sets
72 # two variables, @var{GUILE_CFLAGS} and @var{GUILE_LDFLAGS}.
73 #
74 # @var{GUILE_CFLAGS}: flags to pass to a C or C++ compiler to build code that
75 # uses Guile header files. This is almost always just a @code{-I} flag.
76 #
77 # @var{GUILE_LDFLAGS}: flags to pass to the linker to link a program against
78 # Guile. This includes @code{-lguile} for the Guile library itself, any
79 # libraries that Guile itself requires (like -lqthreads), and so on. It may
80 # also include a @code{-L} flag to tell the compiler where to find the
81 # libraries.
