Announcing genmake, version 1.1!  Available at an alt.sources and comp.sources.
misc archive near you! :)  Look for it on tsx-11 soon!  If you can't wait,
email me and I'll send it to you...

Here's the README:
===============================================================================
Another amazingly trivial program ... only from the mind of Ed :)

This is release 1.1 of genmake, a utility useful for  generating  Makefiles.

Since I really get tired of cranking out Makefiles, I wrote this little guy to
do it for me.  Along the way, I made it as  smart  as  possible,  while  still
keeping it relatively simple.  I wanted to make it so that I could change into
a source directory, type "genmake <options> *.c" and then  run  a  "make"  and
build  all  the  targets,  regardless  of what libraries they had to be linked
with, and so forth.  Yes, I did seriously consider using  the  default  ".c.o"
rules  and  so  forth,  but I wanted to make sure this thing would run on just
about any platform, and I've seen platforms that the "default"  rules  weren't
supported on :(

Any comments or suggestions can be sent to erc@apple.com.   If  you  make  any
changes  or  such,  you  might want to send me diffs or whatever so that I can
roll the changes into the next release.

This is designed to make your life much easier, but you still  might  have  to
tweak the Makefiles a little.  :(  Good luck and have fun!
