+smake is a highly portable make program with automake features
+
+smake is targeted to be used with the "makefiles" system as well as
+any general purpose make task. "makefiles" is best used with smake for
+convenience and easier debugging because gnu make does not run on all
+platforms smake does and because gnu make does not allow to do Makefile
+debugging. Since smake-1.2a26, smake includes a general set of built in
+default make rules; this allows smake to be used as a general purpose
+make program.
+
+smake installs under /opt/schily/ with other schily applications.
