follows. Use "makefile" when talking about makefiles generally (which might be named "makefile" or "Makefile" or even "foo.mk"), "Makefile" when talking about a specific makefile called "Makefile". This unclutters the text from weird quotes (e.g., "`Makefile's" in info mode). Similarly, use "@var{foo} values" rather than "@var{foo}s" and similar constructs containing "}s". Use "Make rules" rather than "Makefile rules". Minor English-language improvements. Change the prefix "sub-" to "sub" and "re-" to "re". Put blank lines around examples more consistently. Avoid "rather" and "very" as intensifiers. Avoid "will" as an auxiliary. (Limitations of Make): Split this node into.... (Portable Make, $< in Ordinary Make Rules, Failure in Make Rules): (Leading _ in Macro Names, Backslash-Newline-Newline): (Backslash-Newline Comments, Long Lines in Makefiles): (Macros and Submakes, The Make Macro SHELL, Comments in Make Rules): (obj/ and Make, make -k Status, VPATH and Make): (VPATH and Double-colon, $< in Explicit Rules): (Automatic Rule Rewriting, OSF/Tru64 Directory Magic): (Make Target Lookup, Single Suffix Rules, Timestamps and Make): New nodes, resulting from splitup of Limitations of Make. All cross-references changed. Raise the top node from a section to a chapter, and all subnodes accordingly. Redo the introductory wording to match the new organization. (Installation Directory Variables): Use an example that is closer to what Autoconf actually does. Mention that VPATH's value should not contain metacharacters or white space. (Fortran Compiler): Fix a VPATH bug in an example. (Leading _ in Macro Names): Mention that this problem is no longer of practical concern. (VPATH and Make): Reword the advice to make it clearer that Autoconf and Automake support VPATH in non-GNU make, but many packages have bugs in this area. ($< in Explicit Rules): Refer to Build Directories rather than using a (non-VPATH-safe) example. (Automatic Rule Rewriting): Mention the sort of disaster that can ensue with Solaris-style rule rewriting with VPATH. |
