mk

Task runner for targets described in Mkfile.

Mostly used to control the compilation of an executable from source code.

More information.

• Call the first target specified in the Mkfile (usually named "all"):

mk

• Call a specific target:

mk {target}

• Call a specific target, executing 4 jobs at a time in parallel:

NPROC=4 mk {target}

• Force mking of a target, even if source files are unchanged:

mk -w{target} {target}

• Assume all targets to be out of date. Thus, update `target` and all of its dependencies:

mk -a {target}

• Keep going as far as possible on error:

mk -k
