DESCRIPTION

mgen-gcc , also known as the 'MakeGENerator', is a highly customizable standalone makefile generator. It enables the usage of different recipes and include path, per groups of files. It generates 'clean','depend' and other rules, automatically, plus handy macros. It simplifies the build process.

OPTIONS

-verbose=<num>: This flag is used in order to alter the default verbose settings, of the 'MakeGENerator'. This flag does not affect the produced makefile.
-h: Displays a description of all the parameters used by the 'MakeGENerator'. Each of these parameters can be used in its configuration file(s). This output contains the default values, and can serve as an input to mgen-gcc, as is.
-H: Same as '-h' flag.
-?: Same as '-h' flag.
mgen.config [ mgen.config.2 [ mgen.config.3 [...] ]: Specify list of input files for the 'MakeGENerator', containing configuration parameters.

Display a short usage message specifying available command line parameters.

mgen-gcc -h
