- Ok, I think you all know what Ken was really trying to say,
- but lets spell it out here quite clearly.
-
- "Make is often intimately involved in the creation of C programs".
-
- and perhaps as the subtext...
-
- "The programmer has to manually construct the make dependencies"
-
- although I suspect this doesn't have to be the case.
-
-
- Neither of these are the case in Ada for all the compilers I've
- heard of/worked with.
