## Overview of TMake

TMake is used in conjunction with Qtopia 1.6 and 1.7. Later releases of Qtopia use qmake and it is important that you acquire the makefile tool appropriate to the Qtopia version with which you are working.

TMake is an easy-to-use tool provided by Trolltech to create and maintain makefiles for software projects.

TMake is written in Perl and requires that you have installed perl version 5 or newer. Basic use of tmake requires no perl knowledge, but if you know perl you can extend tmake and write your own makefile templates.

Windows users: The tmake distribution for Win32 includes tmake.exe (built by the perl2exe utility) and you do not need to download and install perl unless you want to modify the tmake source code or run other perl scripts. You can download perl for Win32 (Windows NT and 95) from www.activestate.com

TMmake is free software and you may use, copy, modify and distribute tmake and its documentation for any purpose and without any fee.

Comprehensive installation, user guide, and reference documentation is provided with the tmake zip file available from the Trolltech ftp server.
