     The Build:target rule specifies a list of commands for the target's
     description block in a PWB project makefile.
 
     Syntax
 
     Build:target $(PROJ).<ext> <command> [<command>]...
 
     $(PROJ).<ext>    The name of a target in the project. The main
                      targets in the project are listed in the Build:all
                      rule.
                      See: ◄Build:all►
 
     <command>        The command or series of commands used to build
                      this target. Each <command> is the name of a
                      command defined in a Build:command rule.
                      See: ◄Build:command►
 
     When PWB applies this rule, it generates a description block in the
     project makefile as follows:
 
     $(PROJ).<ext> : [<dependent>]...
          <command>
          [<command>]
          . . .
 
     PWB synthesizes the dependency line based on the presence of
     special macros in the commands.
     See: ◄How PWB Creates a Project Makefile►
 
     Note that the description block does not appear in the project
     makefile unless it is listed in the Build:all rule.
