        !            12: Description:
        !            13: 
        !            14: The mkmf makefile editor creates  program and library  makefiles for the
        !            15: UNIX make command (UNIX is a trademark of Bell  Telephone  Laboratories,
        !            16: Inc.).  Mkmf has the following features:
        !            17: 
        !            18:     - Automatically inserts source and object code file names in
        !            19:       makefiles
        !            20: 
        !            21:     - Provides standard makefile templates for programs and libraries
        !            22: 
        !            23:     - Allows user-defined makefile templates
        !            24: 
        !            25:     - Generates include file dependencies for C, Pascal, and Fortran
        !            26:       source code
        !            27: 
        !            28:     - Allows arbitrary editing of makefiles with a regular text editor
        !            29: 
        !            30: Installation:
        !            31: 
        !            32: 1.     Set up directories  /usr/new,  /usr/new/lib,  and /usr/man/mann.
        !            33:        These  must  be writable by the installing process.  If you want
        !            34:        to put mkmf somewhere else,  you will have to change  the  DEST=
        !            35:        macro in all the makefiles, and edit the "spms.h" file.
        !            36: 
        !            37: 2.     Change  to  the  mkmf  directory  and  execute   "make install".
        !            38:        If something  goes  wrong, don't panic. Just fix the problem and
        !            39:        restart "make install".
        !            40: 
        !            41: Bugfixes/Changes:
        !            42: 
        !            43: 1.     Mkmf was previously part of the SPMS Software Project Management
        !            44:        System. It is now completely independent.
        !            45: 
        !            46: 2.     Mkmf now searches for include files in the directory  containing
        !            47:        the  file  currently  being  processed,  rather than the current
        !            48:        working directory. This only affects nested include files  which
        !            49:        are external to the current working directory.
        !            50: 3.     Mkmf now reads multiple -I options in  CFLAGS  and  FFLAGS  cor-
        !            51:        rectly.
        !            52: 
        !            53: 4.     Mkmf can now process the example  presented  by  Kim  Walden  in
        !            54:        Software-Practice and Experience,  vol. 14,  no. 6, pp. 575-585,
        !            55:        June 1984.
