+## Autogeneration of simple meson.build files
+
+A feature to generate a meson.build file compiling given C/C++ source
+files into a single executable has been added to "meson init". By
+default, it will take all recognizable source files in the current
+directory.  You can also specify a list of dependencies with the -d
+flag and automatically invoke a build with the -b flag to check if the
+code builds with those dependencies. 
+
+For example,
+
+```meson
+meson init -fbd sdl2,gl
+```
+
+will look for C or C++ files in the current directory, generate a
+meson.build for them with the dependencies of sdl2 and gl and
+immediately try to build it, overwriting any previous meson.build and
+build directory.
