Makepp is a drop-in replacement for GNU make which has a number of
features that allow for more reliable builds and simpler build files.
It supports almost all of the syntax that GNU make supports, and can
be used with makefiles produced by utilities such as automake. It is
called makepp (or make++) because
(1) it was designed for building C++ programs;
(2) its relationship to make is analogous to C++'s relationship
to C.
For backward compatibility, it will work with input files designed
for make, but there are much better ways to do things.
===> The following configuration options are available for make++-2.0_1:
DOCS=on: Build and/or install documentation
===> Use 'make config' to modify these settings

Remove WWW entries moved into port Makefiles
Commit b7f05445c00f has added WWW entries to port Makefiles based on
WWW: lines in pkg-descr files.
This commit removes the WWW: lines of moved-over URLs from these
pkg-descr files.

Add WWW entries to port Makefiles
It has been common practice to have one or more URLs at the end of the
ports' pkg-descr files, one per line and prefixed with "WWW:". These
URLs should point at a project website or other relevant resources.
Access to these URLs required processing of the pkg-descr files, and
they have often become stale over time. If more than one such URL was
present in a pkg-descr file, only the first one was tarnsfered into
the port INDEX, but for many ports only the last line did contain the
port specific URL to further information.
There have been several proposals to make a project URL available as
a macro in the ports' Makefiles, over time.
