+Short: Port of GNU make with SAS/C (no ixemul.library required)
+Author: GNU, Amiga port by Aaron "Optimizer" Digulla
+Uploader: Aaron "Optimizer" Digulla (digulla@fh-konstanz.de)
+Type: dev/c
+
+This is a pure Amiga port of GNU make. It needs no extra libraries or
+anything. It has the following features (in addition to any features of
+GNU make):
+
+- Runs Amiga-Commands with SystemTags() (Execute)
+- Can run multi-line statements
+- Allows to use Device-Names in targets:
+
+ c:make : make.o
+
+ is ok. To distinguish between device-names and target : or ::, MAKE
+ looks for spaces. If there are any around :, it's taken as a target
+ delimiter, if there are none, it's taken as the name of a device. Note
+ that "make:make.o" tries to create "make.o" on the device "make:".
+- Replaces @@ by a newline in any command line:
+
+ if exists make @@\
+ delete make.bak quiet @@\
+ rename make make.bak @@\
+ endif @@\
+ $(CC) Link Make.o To make
+
+ works. Note that the @@ must stand alone (i.e., "make@@\" is illegal).
+ Also be careful that there is a space after the "\" (i.e., at the
+ beginning of the next line).
+- Can be made resident to save space and time
+- Amiga specific wildcards can be used in $(wildcard ...)
+
+BUGS:
+- The line
+
+ dummy.h : src/*.c
+
+tries to make dummy.h from "src/*.c" (i.e., no wildcard-expansion takes
+place). You have to use "$(wildcard src/*.c)" instead.
+
+COMPILING FROM SCRATCH
+----------------------
+
+To recompile, you need SAS/C 6.51. make itself is not necessary, there
+is an smakefile.
+
+1. Copy config.ami to config.h
+2. If you use make to compile, copy Makefile.ami to Makefile and
+ glob/Makefile.ami to glob/Makefile. Copy make into the current
+ directory.
+
+3. Run smake/make
+
+INSTALLATION
+
+Copy make somewhere in your search path (e.g., sc:c or sc:bin).
+If you plan to use recursive makes, install make resident:
+
+ Resident make Add
