Hello,

        I am currently working on a port of bstring, which is basically a few
 files of .c and .h with some testing .c files.
        I was planning on making a .a library and store it in a library 
directory
 (was just told $PREFIX/lib). 

        The thing is that the project doesn't include a Makefile and I am doing
 everything manually. What would be the best way to handle this? Should I have a
 patch to create a Makefile and then use it? All that is basically needed is to
 compile three files into a .a and then move the include files and that library 
 where they need to be.

        Would it acceptable to have the ability to compile and run the tests to
 make sure it runs on the platform it is being run on? Is there a standard way
 to do that if that is ok?

Thanks,
Chris
