Command operators
- - - - - - - - -
You can use any operating system command in a MAKE commands section.
MAKE uses the normal operators (such as +, -, and so on), but it also
has other operators you can use.

Operator        Description
--------        -----------
<               Take the input for use by "command" from
                "file" rather than from standard input.

>               Send the output from "command" to "file".

>>              Append the output from "command" to "file".

<<              Create a temporary, inline file and use
                its contents as standard input to
                "command".

&&              Create a temporary file and insert its
                name in the makefile.

delimiter       Any character other than # and \ used
                with << and && as a starting and ending
                delimiter for a temporary file. Any
                characters on the same line and
                immediately following the starting
                delimiter are ignored. The closing
                "delimiter" must be written on a line by
                itself.
