+dmake is different from other versions of Make in that it supports significant
+enhancements (See the WWW page). A short summary of the more important
+features follows:
+
+ . support for portable makefiles
+ . portable accross many platforms
+ . significantly enhanced macro facilities
+ . sophisticated inference algorithm supporting transitive closure
+ over the inference graph
+ . support for traversing the file sytem both during making of targets
+ and during inference
+ . %-meta rules for specifying rules to be used for inferring
+ prerequisites
+ . conditional macros
+ . local rule macro variables
+ . proper support for libraries
+ . parallel making of targets on architectures that support it
+ . attributed targets
+ . text diversions
+ . group recipes
+ . swapping itself to DISK under MSDOS
+ . supports MKS extended argument passing convention
+ . directory caching
+ . highly configurable
