     WARNING:  For NMAKE to work properly, the date and time
               on your system must be consistent.
 
     Microsoft Programmer's WorkBench (PWB) automatically creates a
     makefile and calls NMAKE to run the file. You can use your own
     makefile as a foreign makefile in PWB.
 
     NMAKE can swap itself to expanded memory, extended memory, or disk
     to leave room for the commands it spawns.
