3.2 Creating a Project
There are following three methods to create a project:
z Create a new project
z Read a project file of TM V2 or earlier version (MTM file) and convert it into TM V3 format project files
z Read an existing makefile and add additional information to create a project
Because the TM can read in existing makefiles, a project can easily be created even when you are conventionally not
using the TM.12
In this quick tour, we explain the method for creating a new project.
Creating a new project
Press the [New Project] button on the Project Bar.

12 Only the existing makefiles written with the GNU make compatible commands can be read into the TM. Those using NMAKE from Microsoft
cannot be read. Note also that when reading an existing makefile, the TM does a partial read assuming macros such as CFLAGS which are
customarily used for specific purposes. Therefore, if the makefile you read is contrary to general conventions, your expected results may not be
obtained.
