Make utilities automate the process of compiling and linking code, ensuring that only the necessary parts of a project are updated and recompiled. They are at the very least useful and sometimes essential for managing the build process of larger software projects.

This page provides instructions on installing GNU Make. It is assumed the main OS is Windows 10 with WSL & Linux already installed.

The GNU Make utility is now installed.

We now have a handy utility that can invoke the GCC Assembler, C Compiler, Linker, and the Object Copy tool taking as input one or more source files and producing output files (.bin .srec etc.) suitable for downloading and running on any Mega-680x0 Computer System.
