Make files

[ChimpFace9000]

Are there any tutorials on how to write a make file?

A make file??:confused:

You know, like the console command make in 'nix.

[amac]

there is also a make that came with VC++

Although the format of a *nix Makefile and a VC++ Makefile are different.

I just want to learn the general format of a make file. Borland products also comes with one.

*sigh* If only we used Unix all the time...you could've done a "man make" :cool:

The VC++ docs have information on writing VC++ makefiles, but they're MOSTLY compatible with standard makefiles.

Just do a search for "make" and you'll be done :D

I have, in multiple search engines. Nothing.

Parksie - try a man vi - if you have nine days to spare.
