If your Makefile contains something like: SRC = SOURCE1.C SOURCE2.C and you do a "make clean" then you will find to your horror that SOURCE1.C & SOURCE2.C have been magically cleaned also. Can you guess how I discovered that one ? Perhaps a warning about c source case in the Makefile template would be prudent as exists for assembly sources.
