NAME
       libtoolize - add libtool support to your package

SYNOPSIS
       libtoolize [OPTION]...

DESCRIPTION
       The libtoolize program provides a standard way to add libtool support
       to your package.  In the future, it may implement better  usage	check
       ing, or other features to make libtool even easier to use.

OPTIONS
       libtoolize accepts the following options:

       --automake
	      Work silently, and assume that Automake libtool support is used.

	      libtoolize --automake is used by Automake to add libtool files
	      to your package, when AC_PROG_LIBTOOL appears in your config
	      ure.in.

       --copy, -c
	      Copy files from the libtool data directory rather than  creating
	      symlinks.

       --debug
	      Enable verbose shell tracing

       --dry-run, -n
	      Dont  run  any commands that modify the file system, just print
	      them out.

       --force, -f
	      Replace existing libtool files.  By default, libtoolize  wont
	      overwrite existing files.

       --help Display a help message and exit.

       --ltdl Install libltdl in a subdirectory of your package.

       --ltdl-tar
	      Add the file libltdl.tar.gz to your package.

       --version
	      Print libtoolize version information and exit.

	      If  libtoolize detects an explicit call to AC_CONFIG_AUX_DIR
	      in your configure.in, it will put the files in  the  specified
	      directory.

	      libtoolize  displays  hints for adding libtool support to your
	      package, as well.
