I am looking for a program that determines dependencies for a makefile
based upon the source files in a project.


Basically I'd like this program to figure out the dependency lines that
would reside in my makefile based upon all the #include lines in all my .c
and .h files. It would be nice if it handled nested includes.


I have seen one before and it was called makedep -- I think it was a
homebrew or public domain utility. If anybody knows where I might find
this or a similar utility please send me e-mail.


thanks!
