As we want our software developed on the SGI to be easier to build on
other systems, notably Linux, we are planning to ditch smake and start
using GNUmake instead (as I suppose smake exists for Irix only.) Can
anyone give me general rules, hints or any kind of information at all
about the process of rewriting Makefiles that use smake specific
features like conditionals, special targets/sources and variable
expansion modifiers?
