This document is about the old pmake implementation from long ago. FreeBSD uses bmake now. |
in <PMake — A Tutorial>3.2. Including Other Makefiles: PMake allows you to do the same thing for makefiles, with the added ability to use variables in the filenames. An include directive in a makefile looks either like this: #include <file> or this: #include "file" ------------------------------------------------- while man page of make writes: All such structures are identified by a line beginning with a single dot (‘.’) character. Files are included with either .include ⟨file⟩ or .include "file". I think the pmake book should change to ".include".
