+Description:
+
+The mkmf makefile editor creates program and library makefiles for the
+make(1) command. Mkmf has the following features:
+
+ - Automatically inserts source and object code file names in
+ makefiles.
+
+ - Provides standard makefile templates for programs and libraries.
+
+ - Allows user-defined makefile templates.
+
+ - Generates included file dependencies for C, C++, Pascal, and Fortran
+ source code
+
+ - Allows arbitrary editing of makefiles with a regular text editor
+
+
+Installation instructions (portable makefiles):
+
+1. The default location of mkmf is in /usr/contrib. Alter the
+ INSTALLDIR definition in mkmf/Makefile to change this location.
+
+2. Create directories $INSTALLDIR/bin and $INSTALLDIR/lib/mkmf.
+
+3. Choose a directory in which to install the manual page, and edit
+ the DEST macro in mkmf/man/man1/Makefile. The makefile assumes
+ that you want to install the formatted manual page in
+ $INSTALLDIR/man/cat1. Alter the makefile to suit your own system.
+
+4. Change to the mkmf directory and execute "make install". If
+ something goes wrong, don't panic. Just fix the problem and
+ restart "make install".
+
+
+Installation instructions (4.4BSD makefiles):
+
+1. The default location of mkmf is in /usr/contrib. Alter the
+ INSTALLDIR definition in mkmf/src/Makefile and
+ mkmf/templates/Makefile to change this location.
+
+2. Create directories $INSTALLDIR/bin and $INSTALLDIR/lib/mkmf.
+
+3. Change to the mkmf directory and execute "make install". If
+ something goes wrong, don't panic. Just fix the problem and
+ restart "make install".
+
+
+Testing:
+
+1. A number of tests have been included with this version of the
+ makefile editor. To test mkmf, carry out the following steps:
+
+2. Set the PROJECT environment variable to correspond to the
+ pathname of the topmost directory in the mkmf directory
+ hierarchy (i.e. the pathname of the directory in which you are
+ reading this README file).
+
+3. Change to the tmp directory and execute the ptest shell command.
+
+
+Porting Hints:
+
+1. Examine the config.h file in the src directory. Several
+ definitions control the conditional compilation of the mkmf
+ source code for variants of the UNIX operating system. You can
+ build a profile of your operating system environment with these
+ definitions and include it in this file. You may wish to send
+ this profile to the address above so that it can be supported
+ in future versions of mkmf.
+
+2. Examine the Makefile in the src directory. If your C
+ preprocessor does not support a system-specific definition, you
+ will need to add a -D definition to CFLAGS corresponding to the
+ profile that you have created in config.h. Use the Apollo SYSV
+ or Cray UNICOS5 definitions as examples.
+
+3. The default location for the standard makefile templates is
+ /usr/contrib/lib/mkmf which is defined in Mkmf.h. You can
+ specify a different location via the INSTALLDIR definition
+ which you can set via a -D option in the CFLAGS makefile macro.
+
+4. The standard makefile templates use the cp(1) command to install
+ files. You may want to redefine the INSTALL macro to use a
+ different command such as /etc/install.
+
+
+Licensing and Support:
+
+ Revision 4.11 of mkmf has been contributed to the 4.4BSD
+ Berkeley Software Distribution by Version Technology subject to
+ the conditions included at the top of this file. Alternative
+ licensing and support arrangements are also available. Contact
+ Version Technology for details.
+
+
+Bugfixes/Changes for 4.4BSD:
+
+1. Mkmf ports more readily to both 4BSD and System V UNIX systems.
+ In particular, mkmf has been ported to Hewlett-Packard HP-UX
+ 7.0 on the HP9000 Series 300 and and 800 systems, HP-UX 8.0 on
+ the HP9000 Series 300 and 700 systems, Apollo Domain/OS 10.2
+ and 10.3 on a DN4500, Sun OS 4.1 on a 4/110, IBM AIX 3.1 on an
+ RS/6000, Apple Macintosh A/UX 2.0.1 on a Macintosh IIfx, Cray
+ UNICOS 5.0 and 6.0 on a Cray Y/MP, Xenix, and 4.4BSD.
+
+2. Mkmf searches for C++ header files in /usr/include/CC.
+
+3. Mkmf recognizes C++ source files with suffixes such as .cc,
+ .cxx, .cpp, and .C, and C++ header files with suffixes such as
+ .hxx, .hpp, and .H.
+
+4. Mkmf recognizes C++ -I options in CXXFLAGS, CCFLAGS, and C++FLAGS.
+
+5. Mkmf supports the VPATH source directory path mechanism of
+ make(1). For versions of make(1) that don't recognize VPATH,
+ the -S option symbolically links files from directories in
+ VPATH into the current directory.
+
+6. Mkmf optionally generates dependencies for /usr/include files
+ if the SYSHDRS macro is specified in the makefile.
+
+7. Mkmf reads the environment and recognizes all variables as
+ macro definitions. The -e option allows the environment
+ variables to override the macro definitions in the makefile.
+
+8. Mkmf supports alternate archive libraries via the LPATH macro
+ and the -L linker option.
+
+9. Mkmf supports language-dependent templates via the -M option.
+ The templates now reside in /usr/contrib/lib/mkmf. The location
+ of this directory may be specified via the INSTALLDIR compile-
+ time option in the source makefile.
+
+10. Mkmf generate library makefiles with target or dependency names
+ as archive library members if the -L option is specified.
+
+11. Mkmf avoids adding source files to the SRCS macro definition
+ if they can be generated by source transformation rules.
+
+12. Mkmf looks for #include <filename> references in directories
+ specified by -I preprocessor flags.
+
+13. Mkmf accepts macro names which include underscores.
+
+14. Mkmf ignores SCCS files and files beginning with #.
+
+15. Mkmf allows Apollo Domain/OS pathnames beginning with //.
+
+16. Mkmf uses the cp(1) command to install programs and libraries
+ instead of /etc/install.
+
+
+Bugfixes/Changes for 4.3BSD:
+
+1. Mkmf was previously part of the SPMS Software Project Management
+ System. It is now completely independent.
+
+2. Mkmf now searches for include files in the directory containing
+ the file currently being processed, rather than the current
+ working directory. This only affects nested include files which
+ are external to the current working directory.
+
+3. Mkmf now reads multiple -I options in CFLAGS and FFLAGS correctly.
+
+4. Mkmf can now process the example presented by Kim Walden in
+ Software-Practice and Experience, vol. 14, no. 6, pp. 575-585,
+ June 1984.
