+.SH NAME
+xmkmf \- create a Makefile from an Imakefile
+.SH SYNOPSIS
+.B xmkmf
+[ -a ] [
+.I topdir
+[
+.I curdir
+] ]
+.SH DESCRIPTION
+The
+.I xmkmf
+command is the normal way to create a
+.I Makefile
+from an
+.I Imakefile
+shipped with third-party software.
+.PP
+When invoked with no arguments in a directory containing an
+.I Imakefile,
+the
+.I imake
+program is run with arguments appropriate for your system
+(configured into
+.I xmkmf
+when X was built) and generates a
+.I Makefile.
+.PP
+When invoked with the
+.I \-a
+option,
+.I xmkmf
+builds the
+.I Makefile
+in the current directory, and then automatically executes
+``make Makefiles'' (in case there are subdirectories),
+``make includes'',
+and ``make depend'' for you.
+This is the normal way to configure software that is outside
+the X Consortium build tree.
+.PP
+If working inside the X Consortium build tree (unlikely unless you
+are an X developer, and even then this option is never really used), the
+.I topdir
+argument should be specified as the relative pathname from the
+current directory to the top of the build tree. 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.
