-This directory contains sample files that should be in pretty much every
-GNOME application.
-
------------------------------------------------------------------------------
-
-To make this work both for GNOME Applications inside and outside the
-GNOME repository tree I did the following:
-
-* There is an `INSIDE_GNOME_COMMON' automake conditional which is defined
- in two places:
-
- - macros/aclocal-includes.m4 defines this to always be false.
-
- - gnome-common/configure.in does not include anything from macros and
- defines this to be true.
-
-* We use this automake conditional in the macros/Makefile.am to install
- $(MACROS), autogen.sh, gnome-common.m4 and a newly created gnome-macros.dep
- in `$(datadir)/aclocal/gnome'.
-
- Since aclocal doesn't look in subdirectories we can safely install them
- there even when compiling from the repository.
-
- Also, there is no need to make any change to any existing application
- in the GNOME repository tree - really fine...
-
-* When we're outside the GNOME repository tree, we simply need to tell aclocal
- that it should also look in `$(datadir)/aclocal/gnome' and it will find all
- the macros.
-
- There is a `gnome-skel' module in the repository that can be used as a
- starting point when writing a new GNOME application that should be used
- outside the repository.
