You might be new, but SunOS 2.5.1 is more archaeology that CS nowadays.

1. Why is "Makefile" being used as a command? What does it signify? It is not defined anywhere in any other make file also.
There is no evidence in the posted material Makefile is used as a command. Nowhere is it executed. That would be quite surprising anyway.

2. What is a .mac file in Solaris? what is it's purpose?
No specific purpose, there are no .mac type with Solaris, the developers might have chosen that extension for macros or whatever.

3. What is the use of .def file in SOlaris? What is it's purpose?
Same as the above. The best guess would be some defines.

PPI::Token::QuoteLike(3)				User Contributed Perl Documentation				  PPI::Token::QuoteLike(3)

NAME
PPI::Token::QuoteLike - Quote-like operator abstract base class INHERITANCE
PPI::Token::QuoteLike isa PPI::Token isa PPI::Element DESCRIPTION
The "PPI::Token::QuoteLike" class is never instantiated, and simply provides a common abstract base class for the five quote-like operator classes. In PPI, a "quote-like" is the set of quote-like things that exclude the string quotes and regular expressions. The subclasses of "PPI::Token::QuoteLike" are: qw{} - PPI::Token::QuoteLike::Words `` - PPI::Token::QuoteLike::Backtick qx{} - PPI::Token::QuoteLike::Command qr// - PPI::Token::QuoteLike::Regexp <FOO> - PPI::Token::QuoteLike::Readline The names are hopefully obvious enough not to have to explain what each class is. See their pages for more details. You may note that the backtick and command quote-like are treated separately, even though they do the same thing. This is intentional, as the inherit from and are processed by two different parts of the PPI's quote engine. SUPPORT
