- There is a "make" tool out that is included with Sozobon C. It
- has no docs with it (which is really annoying), but it is supposedly
- very similar to the UNIX make program. I don't use it myself, I prefer
- to compile everything by hand (although with really BIG programs typing

-
- The dLibs library is a PD C library which is generally considered to be
- better than the libraries included with Alcyon. And as Sozobon C was
- developed as a replacement for Alcyon, and is for the most part
- Alcyon-compatible, dLibs works for both. As a matter of fact, dLibs was
- ORIGINALLY created for use with Alcyon, and the people who wrote Sozobon
- used it.
