This would be a great introduction if it specified at the top that it pertained to GNU make. I had suspected as much, but I wasn't able to confirm for sure until I got to the end and saw that you linked to the GNU make manual for further reading.

I'll throw you an upvote anyway because I suspect most of your target audience is using the GNU toolchain, and because you posted this on your own website instead of using Medium. :)

Thanks! You're absolutely right about not being upfront about being GNU Make-specific. I edited the post to mention it, and I also edited the follow-up post to say the same.

Thanks. That'll make things a little easier for BSD newbies getting familiar with make.
