This will probably just make me sound pathetic to most of you, but, i just wrote my very first Makefile from scratch. I've used Makefiles before, but only ones that i edited, never ones that i wrote.

Plus, now i don't need to type in the compile command by hand. =)

Re: all I have to say about make is

[eub.livejournal.com]

The make I was using in 2/97 (I guess that would be Ultrix make) did something bad if your makefile didn't have a final newline. I forget the bad thing, but it was cryptic and annoying and bad. It would silently ignore the last rule or something like that. Bad, something bad. This was a wrapper to make it never happen again.

But I checked and modern GNU make doesn't have this behavior any more, so I kind of have no point here.
