This Website

This website is maintained by a very intricate system consisting of a GNU Makefile and cat and ln, written entirely in smultron and emacs...

Check out the makefile that builds this website: 
template = template/head.html \
        template/navbar.html \
        template/footer.html

website_dirs = . css downloads img img/lb img/icons js

external_files = $(filter-out Makefile %~ %.smultronProject %.up %.htm %html, $(foreach dir,$(website_dirs),$(wildcard $(dir)/*.*)))

UPLOAD = ../upload.pl
to_upload =

objs = $(patsubst %.html,%.htm,$(wildcard *.html))
upped_external_files = $(addsuffix .up, $(external_files))
menu_sources = $(wildcard *_menu.htm)

upload_command = pushd ../s-softs/; echo Uploading ${to_upload}; ${UPLOAD} $(to_upload); popd;

all: $(objs) $(upped_external_files)
        @$(if $(to_upload), $(upload_command), echo Nothing to upload)

$(objs): %.htm :%.html $(template) $(menu_sources)
        @echo -Building $< to $@ copy to $(addprefix ../s-softs/, $(patsubst %.htm,%.html,$@))
        @-cat template/head.html $(basename $<)_menu.htm template/navbar.html $< template/footer.html > $@  2> /dev/null || echo "    (no menu file in $(basename $<)_menu.htm)"
        @-cp $@ $(addprefix ../s-softs/, $(patsubst %.htm,%.html,$@))
        $(eval to_upload += $(patsubst %.htm,%.html,$@))

$(upped_external_files): %.up:%
        @-mkdir -p $(dir $(addprefix ../s-softs/,$<))
        @-cp $< $(addprefix ../s-softs/,$<)
        @-touch $@
        $(eval to_upload += $<)


re: clean all

clean:
        -rm $(objs) $(upped_external_files)

Look, I know its a joke. But I had fun making it.
