Re: [Bontz-team] graphics engine, makefile

[Chuck]

ok, i think i got it...
you now have multiple build options now.  you can build the project with any
of the following
make
make demo
make fishrace

although they all technically build the same bin right now.  i will have to
look into figuring out how to choose wich main it builds later.
