+<p>Specifying more than one file in the <tt class="docutils literal"><span class="pre">targets</span></tt> lists is the same as
+repeating the recipe for each of the files.</p>
+<p>Use <tt class="docutils literal"><span class="pre">+</span></tt> and <tt class="docutils literal"><span class="pre">+|</span></tt> in the list of <tt class="docutils literal"><span class="pre">targets</span></tt> to tell <tt class="docutils literal"><span class="pre">kmk</span></tt> that the
+recipe has more than one output. <a class="footnote-reference" href="#id84" id="id83" name="id83">[1]</a> The files after a <tt class="docutils literal"><span class="pre">+</span></tt> will
+always be remade, while the files after a <tt class="docutils literal"><span class="pre">+|</span></tt> don't have to be remade.
+The latter is frequently employed to update files which prerequisites
+change wihtout the output files necessarily changing. See also

+<p>Double colon recipes</p>
+<blockquote>
+Double colon recipes are written with <tt class="docutils literal"><span class="pre">::</span></tt> instead of <tt class="docutils literal"><span class="pre">:</span></tt> and are
+handled differently from ordinary recipes if the target appears in more
+than one recipe. First, all the recipes must be of the double colon type.
+Second, the recipes are executed individually and may be omitted depending
+on the state of their prerequisites. Double colon recipes without any
+prerequisites will always be executed.</blockquote>
+<p>Pattern rules</p>
+<blockquote>
+<p>A couple of examples:</p>
+<pre class="literal-block">
+%.o : %.c
+ gcc -o $&#64; $&lt;
+%.tab.c %.tab.h : %.y
+ bison -d $&lt;
+</pre>
+<p>The latter has two outputs.</p>
