xmkmf(1X) xmkmf(1X)
NAME
xmkmf - provides a simplified interface to imake
SYNOPSIS
xmkmf [top-of-sources-pathname [current-directory]]
DESCRIPTION
xmkmf provides a simplified interface to imake(1X). The
xmkmf command runs imake with the appropriate options to
generate a make(1) description file suitable for X11 from a
file produced by imake in the current directory.
Arguments
top-of-sources-pathname
Specifies the location of the X windows source
directory on your system. The default is whatever
was set when imake was installed.
current-directory
Specifies the name of the current directory, which
is passed to imake as the value of the CURDIR
preprocessor symbol.
Environment variables
The environment variables for xmkmf are the same as for
imake. Setting these environment variables is not recom-
mended as they introduce dependencies that are not readily
apparent.
IMAKECPP
Specifies a valid path to a preprocessor program,
such as /usr/local/cpp. By default, xmkmf uses
/lib/cpp.
IMAKEINCLUDE
Specifies a valid include argument for the C prepro-
cessor, such as -I/usr/include/local. Actually, you
can set any valid cpp argument.
IMAKEMAKE
Specifies a valid path to a ``make'' program, such
as /usr/local/make. By default, xmkmf uses whatever
make program is found using execvp(2).
LIMITATIONS
The xmkmf command should accept more imake options and pass
them on to imake.
