Hi Netters,

I have been toying with updating my MS-C from 5.1 to 6.0, but can not really
seem to find a good reason to spend the money.  The only thing I see 
that even MIGHT be worth the money is the supposedly new and improved
"make" utility.  I was hoping one of you 6.0 literate out there might
give me some information on this puppy.  Is it for instance Unix
compatable?  Does it support pattern recognition rules (i.e. "%" rules)?
How does it compare to say dmake?  (dmake interest me because it looks
like it might work well with my MKS Toolkit.)

Any information would be greatly appreciated.

Frank
