GNU Make Documentation

 

1.

There is no man entry for GNU make

2.

In Emacs (but it must be the OVPIT Emacs from /afs/ovpit.indiana.edu/@sys/gnu/bin) enter info by typing C-h i or M-x info and scroll down until you find:

* Make: (make.info).    The GNU `make' utility for automatic and orderly
                          recompilation of large codes.

Place your cursor on that line and press return.

PostScript copy of that manual (150 pp.) can be found in
