Writing Makefiles

The information that tells make how to recompile a system comes from reading a data base called the makefile.

Makefile Contents: What makefiles contain.
Makefile Names: How to name your makefile.
Include: How one makefile can use another makefile.
MAKEFILES Variable: The environment can specify extra makefiles.
Remaking Makefiles: How makefiles get remade.
Overriding Makefiles: How to override part of one makefile with another makefile.
