# SYNOPSIS
#
#   AX_PROG_HELP2MAN([program list], [man directory prefix], [binary prefix])
#
# DESCRIPTION
#
#   AX_PROG_HELP2MAN is a macro designed to facilitate usage of help2man. It
#   may take three optional arguments:
#
#   1. <program list>: comma-separated m4 list of input programs
#
#   Specifies the list of input programs which shall be used to produce man
#   pages using help2man. If no value is specified, the macro assumes that
#   the sole target will be named $(PACKAGE_NAME). Thus, the two following
#   lines are equivalent:
#
#     AX_PROG_HELP2MAN
#     AX_PROG_HELP2MAN([\$(PACKAGE_NAME)])
#
#   2. <man directory prefix>: directory prefix of the man pages directory
#
#   Sets AX_HELP2MAN_PREFIX_MANS to <man directory prefix>. Defaults to
#   'doc/man/man1' if no value is provided. Note that
#   AX_HELP2MAN_PREFIX_MANS will always be a subdirectory of the build
#   directory.
#
#   3. <binary prefix>:
#
#   Sets AX_HELP2MAN_PREFIX_BIN to <binary prefix>. Defaults to
#   '$(top_builddir)' if no value is provided. The two following lines are
#   equivalent:
#
#     AX_PROG_HELP2MAN([subdir/program1, subdir/program2])
#     AX_PROG_HELP2MAN([program1, program2], [], [\$(top_builddir)/subdir])
#
#   The macro:
#
#   - checks that help2man is available on the system.
#
#   - provides the configure option --disable-help2man.
#
#   - sets the output variable ax_help2man_MANS to the list of man pages
#   that shall be generated.
#
#   - sets the automake conditional HAVE_HELP2MAN
#
#   - sets the substitution variable AX_HELP2MAN_RULES to the required make
#   rules, targets and recipes.
#
#   Further detail on the macro can be found after the minimal working
#   example. Here is a minimal working example:
#
#     # configure.ac:
#     AX_PROG_HELP2MAN
#
#     # Makefile.am:
#     if HAVE_HELP2MAN
#     man1_MANS = $(ax_help2man_MANS)
#     @AX_HELP2MAN_RULES@
#     endif
#
#   This minimal working example shall work under the following assumptions:
#
#   1. the aforementioned binary has the same name as the project
#
#   2. the project produces a single binary at the root of the build
#   directory
#
#   3. the man page shall be generated into the doc/man/man1 directory
#
#   Note that adding ax_help2man_MANS to man1_MANS is not needed if the man
#   page generation is not mandatory.
#
#   The AX_HELP2MAN_RULES substitution variable shall contain:
#
#   - a recipe to create, if necessary, the destination directory.
#
#   - a generic rule to produce the manpages.
#
#   This rule targets the contents of the variable ax_help2man_MANS and its
#   recipe shall be akin to the following:
#
#     $(HELP2MAN) -l -N --output="$@" --name="$(shell basename $<)" "$(shell dirname $<)/$(shell basename $<)"
#
#   Errors from this rule are ignored.
#
#   - rules for each input program and target man page.
#
#   For each input program, a rule akin to the following shall be available:
#
#     $(AX_HELP2MAN_PREFIX_MANS)/program.1: $(AX_HELP2MAN_PREFIX_BIN)/path/to/program
#
#   The macro assumes that all man pages shall be generated into the same
#   directory (AX_HELP2MAN_PREFIX_MANS) and that all input programs can be
#   found in the same directory (AX_HELP2MAN_PREFIX_BIN). If a subset of the
#   inputs or outputs have different paths (for instance one of the inputs
#   is a script available in $(top_srcdir) whereas the other inputs are
#   programs compiled at build time), it can be customized in the
#   Makefile.am: the target man page must be added to ax_help2man_MANS, so
#   that it becomes a target of the generic rule for man pages and a rule
#   must be added to specify its prerequisite:
#
#     ax_help2man_MANS += path/to/output/man/page.1
#     path/to/output/man/page.1: path/to/input/program.1
#
#   Here is a full example for a project where binaries 'program1' and
#   'program2' are compiled at build time whereas 'script' is available in
#   the source tree:
#
#     # configure.ac:
#       AX_PROG_HELP2MAN([program1, program2])
#
#     # Makefile.am:
#       if HAVE_HELP2MAN
#       man1_MANS = $(ax_help2man_MANS)
#       @AX_HELP2MAN_RULES@
#       ax_help2man_MANS += $(AX_HELP2MAN_PREFIX_MANS)/script.1
#       $(AX_HELP2MAN_PREFIX_MANS)/script.1: $(top_srcdir)/script
#       endif
#
#   Note that this macro should not be called more than once.
