-This directory contains the release of GNU Make.
-All bugs reported for previous test releases have been fixed.
-Some bugs surely remain.
+Make is a tool which controls the generation of executables and
+other non-source files of a program from the program's source files.
+
+Make gets its knowledge of how to build your program from a file
+called the makefile, which lists each of the non-source files and
+how to compute it from other files. When you write a program, you
+should write a makefile for it, so that it is possible to use Make
+to build and install the program.
+
+This is the GNU version of make.
