     "GNU pyconfigure provides template files for easily implementing
standards-compliant configure scripts and Makefiles for Python-based packages.
It is designed to work alongside existing Python setup scripts, making it easy
to integrate into existing projects.  Powerful and flexible Autoconf macros
are available, allowing you to easily make adjustments to the installation
procedure based on the capabilities of the target computer.")
