This is also confusing as mk(1) by plan9 exists, but you explicitly
target POSIX make(1).
makelint is a really great name and it clearly shows what it does, the
linked project seems to be dead after the initial commit and nobody
talks about it.
Here are some suggestions for a different name:
- makel ("Makel" means "flaw" in Germany, and it fits so well
because you want to find flaws in Makefiles)
- makeorbreak (english idiom, meaning a situation that either brings
success or complete failure, might be a nod towards
the fact that you either are POSIX compliant or not)
- shakenmake (like Shake'n'Bake)
I really like "makel" to be honest, which also fits your theme of
naming some of your projects after German nouns (e.g. libzahl).
With best regards
Laslo
