Makefile editor recommendations?

Oct 27, 2005 3 Replies

Hi, I have a large Makefile to deal with. To make things a bit easier it would be nice to have an editor that understands Makefiles and can display various sections etc in a sort of Makefile explorer panel.



Any suggestions that can run on windows as well?



Thanks.

The CDT plug-in for Eclipse has an outlining feature for Makefiles.

But personally, I mainly use Emacs for editing Makefiles.
