MAKETOOL(1)  —  USER COMMANDS

NAME

maketool — Makefile browser and OpenWindows interface to the make(1) program

SYNOPSIS

maketool [ makefile ]

DESCRIPTION

MakeTool is the OpenWindows interface to make(1), the SunOS utility that automatically maintains, updates, and regenerates programs and files from the source files on which they depend. You can start MakeTool from the SPARCworks Manager or from the command line. 

To start MakeTool from the command line, type maketool at the command prompt. If you do not specify makefile, MakeTool searches the working directory for a makefile named makefile.  If no file of that name is found, MakeTool searches for a file named Makefile.  If MakeTool cannot find makefile or Makefile, it starts without loading a makefile. Use the File menu to load a makefile after you start MakeTool. 

To display literal and expanded versions of statements from the loaded makefile, click on the Browser button on the MakeTool base window, which opens the Makefile Browser window.
