title: Compiling C Source with Makefile in Windows
body: <p>I'm trying to compile a downloaded program in Windows.  The program is usually run in Linux, but is programmed to also run in Windows (the code has #if defined(_WIN32)'s in it, and claims to work with borland free tools).  When I try to use make from the command line, it tells me "Incorrect command line argument: -C".  In the makefile, there are many lines that say "make -C" followed by a directory name.  Does this syntax not work in Windows?  What is a correct way to do this?  Is there any way to compile this for native use in Windows with this makefile?</p>
