In computer programming, GNU Libtool is a software development tool, part of the GNU build system, consisting of a shell script[3] created to address the software portability problem when compiling shared libraries from source code.
It hides the differences between computing platforms for the commands which compile shared libraries.[4]
It provides a command-line interface that is identical across platforms and it executes the platform's native commands.
