Convert IN to MAKEFILE

QUICK ANSWER
Is it possible to convert IN to MAKEFILE?
Yes - IN converts to MAKEFILE.

Makefile.in is processed by the configure script (./configure) which replaces @VAR@ placeholders with system-detected values to produce the final Makefile. This is the intended workflow - not a direct file conversion.

Also to MAKEFILE: DSW
