The +file BUILD.mpw in this directory is an executable script +which uses all of these files to create the MPW makefiles and +run them. + +The <file>.make files are not MPW makefiles as such, +but are when run through the "mactrans" program, which turns +the ascii "%nn" metacharacters into the standard weird MPW +make characters. + +This translation trick is necessary to protect the files when +they are put into unix tarfiles, which tend to mangle the +special characters. + + --Niles Ritter (ndr@tazboy.jpl.nasa.gov) |
