1 GNUstep makefile package

**************************

Here is some introductory info to get you started:

1.1 What is the GNUstep makefile package?

=========================================

The makefile package is a simple, powerful and extensible way to write

makefiles for a GNUstep-based project.  It allows the user to write a

project without having to deal with the complex issues associated with

configuration, building, installation, and packaging.  It also allows

the user to easily create cross-compiled binaries.

1.2 Information

===============

The file 'NEWS' has this packages feature history.

   The file 'INSTALL' gives instructions for configuring and installing

gnustep-make.  Also see the 'machines' documentation

and various machine specific READMEs in the Documentation directory.

   Files in the 'Documentation' directory have information on the design

of the Makefile system and how to write your own makefiles that work

with it.

1.3 License

===========

The GNUstep libraries are covered under the GNU Lesser Public License.

This means you can use these libraries in any program (even non-free

programs).  If you distribute the libraries along with your program, you

must make the improvements you have made to the libraries freely

available.  You should read the COPYING.LIB file for more information.

   GNUstep tools, test programs, and other files are covered under the

GNU General Public License.  The GNU GPL is a free software license,

which requires that all the released improved versions be free software

as well.  You should read the COPYING file for more information.

   The GNUstep make package is licensed under the GNU GPL.

1.4 History

===========

The GNUstep makefile package was designed by Scott Christley and Ovidiu

Predescu.

   Flags for building shared libraries and bundles on several systems

were originally identified by Mircea Oancea .

   Richard Frith-Macdonald  also contributed

with ideas.

   Nicola Pero  rewrote much of the rule

procedures to increase the speed of the package by over a factor of 7.

He also rewrote much of the rest of the system to make it simpler and

more effective.
