1.1 How to Read This Manual
===========================

read the first few sections of each chapter, skipping the later
sections. In each chapter, the first few sections contain introductory
or general information and the later sections contain specialized or
technical information. The exception is the second chapter, An
Introduction to Makefiles Introduction, all of which is introductory.
If you are familiar with other 'make' programs, see Features of
GNU 'make' Features, which lists the enhancements GNU 'make' has, and
