Setting up MAKE file for Postgres and C++/Newbie question

A make file can be very simple indeed. These days makefiles have become
almost incomprehensible to all but a few!
If you don't want to be flexible and portable in the extreme, a simple
makefile for the current directory for any project goes like this:
--------------------------------------
INC="/pathFor/Other/Includes"

foo : foo.o
gcc -o foo foo.o
foo.o : foo.c
gcc -c foo.c -I $(INC);
--------------------------------------
Some years ago I wrote a program makemake which created makefiles based on
the contents of the current dir.
It was for a DOS based system but should work anywhere (with perhaps a
couple of tweeks).
I will see if I can dig it out.
Hope this helps.
