Why Use Make (2013)

• dozzie 11y ago
  Every time I see a tutorial about makefiles, I'm saddened by the author not going deep enough to show how convenient and versatile make is. Most of the tutorials stop at passing static bunch of files through static set of static rules, with an exception of using few variables, and sometimes with a pattern (implicit rule). But there's so much more, especially in GNU make!
