Synopsis

Step-by-step procedures for effectively using the utility in UNIX and DOS environments. The MAKE utility was created to help programmers manage files that will be compiled and linked together to form a single executable program. However, due to a paucity of information in MAKE, most programmers implement MAKE by trial and error. This combined tutorial and reference was designed to fill this gap. Focusing on three versions of MAKE--MAKE from Microsoft, MAKE from Borland, and MAKE for UNIX systems, and their guidelines and applications--the handbook explains how MAKE works, suggests reasons for using it, demonstrates its versatility and flexibility through examples of tested MAKE files, and provides a smooth, logical progression for learning the utility from its basic concepts to its most sophisticated implementations.
