These macros for Autoconf test if latex and/or some others applications are installed
To use this macro, just do the following :
    add m4_include([latex.m4]) to the configure.in file
    use autoconf -I<path to folder of latex.m4>
or 
    aclocal -I <path to folder that contains these macro>
    autoconf
