Makefile-Maker

Important It is recommended that you use the "theOneMakefile" repository instead [https://github.com/rvthak/theOneMakefile]

( At the moment, it works on small projects that have all their files in a single directory )

Argument list:

Argument	Correct Usage	Argument Meaning	Argument type	Default value
-n	-n name	Set name	string	a.out
-f	-f cpp	Set source files format	string	cpp
-h	-h hpp	Set header files format	string	hpp
-c	-c g++	Set compiler	string	g++
-db	-db	gdb toggle	boolean	true
-vg	-vg	valgrind toggle	boolean	true
-i	-i	make install toggle	boolean	true
-p	-p	Compilation argument toggle	boolean	false
-e	-e	Execution argument toggle	boolean	false
--help	--help	Print Help
--version	--version	Print Version

(Compilation/Execution toggle will ask the user for the parameters later)

! Important Note ! To mess with the parameters, some basic programming knowledge is advised. This program was developed for pesonal use.

Installation:

1. Download zip and unzip or git clone
2. cd into the project directory
3. make install
4. You will be asked your admin privileges password to complete the installation
5. Delete the downloaded folder
6. You can now run the program from your project's directory with: mkfl

Installation Example: (In terminal)

git clone https://github.com/rvthak/Makefile-Maker.git
cd Makefile-Maker
make install
#(program installation asks for your password and finishes)
cd ..
rm -rf Makefile-Maker/

Ideas/Features to add if i ever need them:

1. If a makefile already exists on the current directory, the program will ask if the user wants to edit the existing one or make a new one ( add the ability to parse an already existing makefile)
2. Implement "-org" The system will organise all selected files in folders source files in ./source, header files in ./include and object files in ./bin ( final executable + makefile will stay in the parent directory)
