title: What does the linux make command do?
body: <p>I created a database and a table inside it.I insert records manually and then run a python script which reads the records and updates them in the table. I was just trying 
  the <code>make &amp;&gt;1.txt</code> command to redirect the output when the unexpected happened.<br>
  Even when I am not running the script and insert the record manually from mysql, the script is
  running somewhere as it updates the records , but I am not running it any tab<br>
  What is the reason ??
  The script just starts running by itself!!!</p>
