-About contrib:mac-mpw:
-######################
-
-This directory contains all of the utilities and makefile source
-to build the LIBTIFF library and tools from the MPW Shell. 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.
