# makefile - A Library and Tool for Generating Makefiles for Curry Applications
This package contains a library `MakeFile` with datatypes
to describe the structure of makefiles and print them
in the standard makefile syntax.
Furthermore, the package also contains a tool to generate
a makefile for a Curry application.
## Installing the tool
Execute
> cypm install makefile
This installs the executable `curry-genmake` in the bin directory
of CPM.
## Using the tool
In the simplest case, run the executable with the main module of
the application as an argument, e.g.,
> curry-genmake Main
This should output a makefile. There are further options to write
the output into a file or provide some name to which the main executable
will be linked when installing the application with the makefile
(use option `--help`).
If the application needs a specific load path for modules,
this load path must be set via the environment variable `CURRYPATH`.
For instance, to generate a makefile for some package managed with CPM,
one can use the CPM command `cpm exec` inside the package directory,
e.g.,
> cypm exec curry-genmake Main
