Four Island

Lol, time for another short randomness. Today, I was thinking about how Makefiles didn't have to be used for compiling programs, that they could be used as a recipe for anything. Then I thought, "I know! Let's make a cake using a Makefile!" :)

The recipe described is the Caramel Coffee Cake from Wikibooks. Let it assemble before using the linker. Enjoy. Lol :)

A SIDENOTE: When writing this post, I was trying to indent the command lines in the Makefile so that it looked right, but I was tricked by my own code: My pre BBCode no longer preformatted the text, &nsbp; was converted into text, and the

indent trick messed up the formatting. I tried adding a BBCode that preformatted the text, but I was unable to commit as, on my development computer, I'm currently working on the new layout for Four Island. Finally, I thought of making a transparent image and putting it on Four Island Other. It workded. :)
