I'm feeling a little like an infant here... How do I run it?

FULL DISCLOSURE: I'm a Windows guy.  I've done almost nothing with unix, so
I'm kinda going by feel here.  How do I launch the makefile?  What files
need to be where in order for it to work?

Mike

Here's a minimalistic Makefile for compiling gomoku.



CC=g++
OBJS=board2d.o chkuser.o file.o game.o gamefile.o lists.o ratings.o
sendmail.o strutl.o
CFLAGS=-g -Wall -Wno-switch
LIBS=-lm

.SUFFIXES: .c .cpp .o

.cpp.o:
	$(CC) $(CFLAGS) -c $<

gomoku: gomoku.o gomoku_main.cpp $(OBJS)
	$(CC) $(CFLAGS) -o gomoku gomoku.o gomoku_main.cpp $(OBJS) $(LIBS)
