    make files

    I have a "make file" saved as a txt file. What do I rename it to and how do I run it please. Do I type "make" before compiling???? Confused.

    At least in gcc (DJGPP, etc):

    name: makefile
    type: make (in the same folder of course)

    make makefile.txt

    Whatever statements are in the makefile.txt file will be executed (if you are running make in the directory where makefile.txt is located).
