Where can I read more about how to pick the right rules?  Most of the
serious software I've seen says something to the effect of "go find
some Imakefiles and choose from those."  Is there a description
somewhere?  (Um, I can't qualify config/Imake.rules as "description"
because it's unparseable by mere mortals who want to spend less than
30 minutes trying to figure out how to write an Imakefile.)
