hi,
i think from time to time there is a suggestion to get rid of these autotools.
here is a compelling article that makes me want to look at cmake:

greetings, martin.
We don't use Automake or Libtool which reduces the amount of horror we are subject to, but replacing autoconf has been discussed more than once.
The article is very sparse on details though, and the documentation for cmake does not make it clear how it makes a better autoconf replacement. Any details there?
