Hello list,

I've compiled a list of Guile skeleton projects with Autotools
(autoconf, automake) here:
<https://codeberg.org/annoyingusername/guile-project-skeletons-autotools>.
Hopefully this will be useful to others. I tried to cover all the
cases that I could come up with.

It would be nice if these examples somehow made it into the Guile
distribution (somewhere under examples/?) and if they were mentioned
in the manual so that others can discover them easier. Personally, the
manual had left me confused on how to set up my projects before I
embarked on this project to write down all these examples, although
admittedly it only uses autoconf and not automake, avoiding certain
subtle bugs with GUILE_SITE from meta/guile.m4 being a hardcoded path.

Regards,
Nikolaos Chatzikonstantinou
