This isn't the imake documentation we're waiting for, but in the meantime... On host indri.primate.wisc.edu (128.104.230.11), there is available for anonymous ftp in the pub/imake-stuff directory a document describing how the configuration file architecture used in X11R4 may be modified to allow multiple projects to use a set of standard configuration files while providing for individual project-specific override/extension of the standards. The files are: config-WRPRC1.02.ms (troff source) config-WRPRC1.02.ps (PostScript of same) The file config-WRPRC.shar.Z is a compress shar file (transfer in binary mode) that includes source for imake, makedepend, etc. as well as configuration files that illustrate the concepts discussed in the document. These are *much* different than the X config files, even though the basic layout is derived from them. The Imake.rules file diverges especially strongly. Thus, they might be useful as an independent example of how to use imake. Paul DuBois dubois@primate.wisc.edu
