NAME

makeg - make a debuggable executable

SYNOPSIS

makeg [ make-options ... ] [ targets ... ]

DESCRIPTION

The makeg script runs make, passing it variable settings to create a debuggable target when used with a Makefile generated by imake. For example, it arranges for the C compiler to be called with the -g option.

ENVIRONMENT

MAKE

The make program to use. Default ``make''.

GDB

Set to a non-null value if using the gdb debugger on Solaris 2, which requires additional debugging options to be passed to the compiler.
