1Short: Port of GNU make with SAS/C (no ixemul.library required)
2Author: GNU, Amiga port by Aaron "Optimizer" Digulla
3Uploader: Aaron "Optimizer" Digulla (digulla@fh-konstanz.de)
4Type: dev/c

6This is a pure Amiga port of GNU make. It needs no extra libraries or
7anything. It has the following features (in addition to any features of
8GNU make):
9
10- Runs Amiga-Commands with SystemTags() (Execute)
11- Can run multi-line statements
12- Allows to use Device-Names in targets:
13
14 c:make : make.o
15
16 is ok. To distinguish between device-names and target : or ::, MAKE
17 looks for spaces. If there are any around :, it's taken as a target
18 delimiter, if there are none, it's taken as the name of a device. Note
19 that "make:make.o" tries to create "make.o" on the device "make:".
20- Replaces @@ by a newline in any command line:
21
22 if exists make @@\
23 delete make.bak quiet @@\
24 rename make make.bak @@\
25 endif @@\
26 $(CC) Link Make.o To make
27
28 works. Note that the @@ must stand alone (i.e., "make@@\" is illegal).
29 Also be careful that there is a space after the "\" (i.e., at the
30 beginning of the next line).
31- Can be made resident to save space and time
32- Amiga specific wildcards can be used in $(wildcard ...)
33
34BUGS:
35- The line
36
37 dummy.h : src/*.c
38
39tries to make dummy.h from "src/*.c" (i.e., no wildcard-expansion takes
40place). You have to use "$(wildcard src/*.c)" instead.
41
42COMPILING FROM SCRATCH
43----------------------
44
45To recompile, you need SAS/C 6.51. make itself is not necessary, there
46is an smakefile.
47
481. Copy config.ami to config.h
492. If you use make to compile, copy Makefile.ami to Makefile and
50 glob/Makefile.ami to glob/Makefile. Copy make into the current
51 directory.
52
533. Run smake/make
54
55INSTALLATION
56
57Copy make somewhere in your search path (e.g., sc:c or sc:bin).
58If you plan to use recursive makes, install make resident:
59
60 Resident make Add
