Anyway, I still think makefiles suck.
I agree makefiles suck. I hate them. I would much rather use a normal AmigaDOS script to handle all the compiling.
I use makefiles because I "inherited" them from the C compiler industry.
I am not sure why you hate makefiles. You might only hate them because you were given sucky makefiles with no CLEAN option?
Or maybe you are like me and hate them because they are all different from one compiler to another?
