The UNIX(tm) "make" command has nothing to do with TECO.

make is a TOP-RSTS-OS/8 command to invoke TECO, creating a new file.
The OS/8 command line interpreter used to have the check and would
print "not war?" if it scanned "Make love".

make on unix builds software, checking version numbers and dates and things,
only recompiling what is out of date.

Let's stop this "TECO does not sat not war?" mess -- I've seen about 10
messages so far about it.
