No. The .am means "_a_uto_m_ake template". Such files need to be processed with automake first. If you just want to write a simple Makefile, then call it "Makefile" (see `man make') and add the rules to create your binary to the file. The make-doc package will help you and tell you more about built-in rules. See especially section 2 for a sample Makefile. Regards, Daniel
