Hmmm,

man install!!!

Me like.

Me try: man make
	"In fact, make is not limited to programs.  You can use it to describe any
task
       where some files must be updated automatically from others whenever
the others change."

Kawabungha!!!
Maybe Me learn to make install script like real programmers do!

Thanks Adam, et. al.

Nah, this type of Makefile doesn't do anything but contain a list of install
commands.  "install" (i.e. man install) is a command that just lets you copy
a
file to a destination and specify permisions/ownership and the same time.
