makefile for c++ programs.

[Amit Bhatia]

Hello,
 I am sorry to be posting this to this grp as I could not find any 
group for such queries in mac based forums.
  I am using os 10.3.
 I wish to make a Makefile for compiling c++ programs. I use simple 
emacs interface for writing all the code and terminal to compile them. I 
have used a Makefile on linux systems for the same. just wondering how 
to change it: many of the things would be changed or would be in 
different locations.

any suggestions? do people normally use configure or something to make 
these makefiles?

 for linux(RH 9.0) my makefile looked like:


# This file was generated automatically by configure.  Do not edit.
VPATH = .
#
#       Makefile
#

#### package, host, target, and site dependent Makefile fragments come 
in here.
