BRIEF OVERVIEW:
===============

Shake is a flexible and extendible Makefile generator. Makefiles are
built by filtering Shakefiles, which may contain macro directives as
well as raw make syntax.

There are two types of shake macro:
    * the VARIABLE; simple text substitution
    * the MACRO; substitution from the output of an arbitrary Unix
      command (usually a shell script)
Note that this scheme retains all the advantages of make, whilst
being substantially more powerful than other preprocessor schemes
(such as imake).

The following modules are provided:
    * Core -- hierarchy support; include, install and directory macros
    * Program -- C++/C/yacc/lex compilation for both libraries and executables
    * Uil -- Motif UIL compilation.
    * TeX -- TeX/LaTeX/SliTeX document maintenance

Shake has been in heavy use for 2 years at Iconix. Previous versions have
been distributed within Australia, however version 3.2 is the first
worldwide release.
