I'm fine with all the patches but this one. Maybe it's a matter of
opinion, but one thing that I've learned is to make things easy for
users. I point people to this repo for kernelshark. If they do make, and
don't get it, I want them to know that they can do in with make gui, and
not expect them to have to look at other files. Yes I consider people
lazy.

Maybe this is OK, but I would like to hear other opinions on this
subject. A README and INSTALL maybe fine instead.

Thanks,

If you don't like this, I could just submit the README changes
but I would at least recommend that we change the messages
so they don't like like Makefile errors.

For example: REMINDER: You can make the gui by typing make gui

How about:

NOTE: to build the gui, type make gui
