It is possible to define and install programs which are scripts. Such programs are listed using the `SCRIPTS' primary name. Automake doesn't define any dependencies for scripts; the `Makefile.am' should include the appropriate rules.
Automake does not assume that scripts are derived objects; such objects must be deleted by hand (see section What Gets Cleaned).
The automake program itself is a Perl script that is generated at
configure time from `automake.in'. Here is how this is handled:
bin_SCRIPTS = automake
Since automake appears in the AC_OUTPUT macro, a target
for it is automatically generated.
Script objects can be installed in bindir, sbindir,
libexecdir, or pkgdatadir.
