1 Introduction</A>
</H1>
This short document attempts to explain simply how the gnustep
makefile package works internally.  When I first wrote this document,
the mechanism used to be extremely complex, involving many recursive
make invocations; I have now simplified it so that it involves only a
single recursive make invocation per target/type/operation.  As a
result, I hope that the mechanism is now so simple that you can figure
out how it works without reading this document, by just reading the
gnustep-make source code.  Anyway, the thing might still not be still
totally trivial at a first approach, so this document might help you
to get familiar with the gnustep-make source code in a shorter time
and with less pain.
