Yes, I know, it's just that I haven't conceived away to the run the automake

feature for a Symbian OS development environment so this is a "hand" job.

It is the same problem here with automake for Symbian OS. Is it possible to

squeeze in the Symbian OS the macro in the relevant files without disrupting

the automake tool? I currently don't have the environment or experience

with automake.
