I apologize, I don't quite understand what you mean about using Autoconf and 
automake.

Right now I have my observerSwarm passing messages to the shell in order to 
create directories for each simulation run so that all of the pixmaps and 
text files I generate are dumped into folders labeled for each simulation 
run.  Previously I had to manually create these directories prior to runtime 
or I got nasty errors when the program attempted to write files to 
directories that didn't exist.

I really don't need the cp function.  I was using this to simply copy over 
he text files I use to configure the simulation (my different setup files and 
a large map) to insure that I keep the proper configure files with the right 
data.
