I just realized that the dmc -d option produces a .dep file that lists all
the dependencies of a compiled file. The real boon is that the digital mars
make program expands $(filename) to the contents of the file. I don't know
if this is a common feature of make programs because it was only mentioned
breifly in the compiler's documentation. Anyway, the end result is that the
makefiles almost write themselves.
file.obj: ($file.dep) file.cpp
dmc file.cpp -d -c
The above will rebuild the target when the cpp file changes or when any .h
file listed in the .dep file changes. And of course, the .dep file gets
regenerated whenever the .cpp file or any .h file is modified. Perfect :)

You are right, it is an extremely useful feature. I have just downloaded
DM - it is my first command line environment (I use the free version), and
so I took a look in the "bin" folder, discovered "make.exe" and read several
make tutorials - all just outline the structure of a make file, not how to
use them effectively!
None mentioned any shortcut like this! You don have to write
file.obj: $(file.dep) file.cpp
but
file.obj: ($file.dep)
seems to be enough. I don't know what happens when file.dep does not exist,
maybe no dependencies will be "filled in", and that causes make to rebuild
the target - and when make is invoked the next time, it fills in the
required dependencies.
I have no idea how to effectively program in a command-line environment
(although DM does not come with too many .exes, there is MinGW for example,
which does), can you recommend any step-by-step tutorials for newbies like
me?
