I have been using the make command on Sun Workstations.  It can 
automatically figure out what files depend on what files, if you
use .KEEP_STATE macro.  It is very convenient, especially when you
change your OS or complier, or your own libraries.  

Now I wonder if gmake, the only make utility I can find for Linux,
has the same feature.  Any pointers will be appreciated.
