first makefile

gcampton (861)
Hey, this is my first makefile and I've tried to add as many bells and whistles as possible. Basically I've never used most of the GCC commands I've added, so I'm unsure of conflicting flags but didn't see anything in man(1) to suggest they would. Anyway, would like someone to take a look and add suggested improvements or fixes thanks. I haven't tested as I haven't figured out how to make eclipse work for me yet.

edit: Also I'm not sure if lines 8-10 will work as the variables have not been declared yet.

Also anyone know how to turn an auto-managed CDT project under eclipse into a self-managed ?
