Optionally, +.I curdir +may be specified as a relative pathname from the top of the build +tree to the current directory. It is necessary to supply +.I curdir +if the current directory has subdirectories, or the +.I Makefile +will not be able to build the subdirectories. +If a +.I topdir +is given, +.I xmkmf +assumes nothing is installed on your system and looks for files in +the build tree instead of using the installed versions. +.SH "SEE ALSO" +imake(1) |
