Can anyone give me a makefile that creates 3 exe?for example, let's suppose i have the following files:

blah1.c
blah1.h

blah2.c
blah2.h

blah3.c
blah3.h

i've searched and searched but so far i was not able to complete it.

Assuming you're using GNU make:
Code:
SRC=blah1.c blah2.c blah3.c
HDR=$(SRC:.c=.h)
OBJ=$(SRC:.c=.o)

PROG=$(SRC:.c=)

all: $(PROG)

$(PROG): $(OBJ)
        gcc -Wall -ggdb -o $@ $@.o

.c.o: $(SRC) $(HDR)
        gcc -Wall -ggdb -c $<

clean:
        rm -f $(PROG) $(OBJ)

Adjust the compile options as needed.

I meant that you'll probably have to change the lines invoking gcc to reflect the compile options you're using.
